Why you'd want to live in The Fan District

The Fan is set on the edge of the urban, artsy VCU campus, and you can sense that art school vibe throughout the neighborhood. It’s packed with hundred-plus-year-old houses, coffee roasters and coffee shops, old school barbershops, corner mom-and-pop spots, basement bars serving sandwiches to die for and restaurants that push the tables and chairs away at night to become some of the best places to dance. The Fan's got live music too, at a number of venues. via visitrichmondva.com
