Update February 2020

If you’re the curious type, you can you use the Virginia Public Access Project’s (VPAP) tool to see who is donating to whom in a particular zip code. I found it to be quite interesting, as we are in the middle the 2020 election cycle.

Politically, Will I fit in? Will I like my neighbors? Will they like me? Will we get along?

As a Realtor, I can help with some of these, and others I can’t.

When you move into a new area, buy a new home, you’re not just buying the house. You’re buying your neighbors – today, tomorrow, next month –

Driving around neighborhoods observing political signs is one way to help determine whether you might “fit in” in a neighborhood –  many, many of my clients are doing that right now. Some might feel more comfortable in a Romney-dominated neighborhood, some in an Obama-heavy neighborhood, others prefer no signs, some a good mix (50-50 is nice in my mind) –

I’m looking forward to after the election so I can update this post from 2011 in which I looked at some of the voting trends in Charlottesville and Albemarle – I wonder what’s changed.

City of Charlottesville

County of Albemarle

But really, I just want the election to be over. Who isn’t?
