That house (https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/4220-Kingcrest-Pkwy_Richmond_VA_23221_M68492-19316) is wonderful. I love the dog on the porch too.

But...here's the funny thing...we could afford around 800-900k with great public schools (we need middle/high) or 500k with private. The more expensive nice homes are in the city itself, which seem like not great schools (I have one kid who might test into one of the magnets, one wont). So it looks like henrico county would make more sense school/finance wise, although I love the idea of city living. [/quote]

Private school is significantly less expensive in Richmond. Many families end up staying in the city, though some do move out to the burbs. Agree that housing stock is significantly nicer within city limits, especially if you are looking for a well maintained historic home (of which there are many to choose from in your price range). We have family that live near the “Libbie and Grove” area which is the intersection of two streets that has a handful of great restaurants and shopping, surrounded on all sides by gorgeous homes. Issue is, like you said, public schools.[/quote]
