Front Royal, Virginia: A Place to Reconnect to Nature 3 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) The town that I live in is Front Royal, Virginia and it is a pleasant area to live in. Living in Front Royal, Virginia provides me with the beauty of the mountains, but I am also just drive away from Washington, D.C. if I want a fun day trip. The best of both worlds is here, the ...Read More beauty of nature while being close to a major metropolitan area.

The best areas in Front Royal, Virginia have to be the various recreational areas that are situated close by. The town is very close to the Shenandoah National Park. There are many trails around to hike and to give you a chance to reconnect with nature.

While the area overall is safe, unfortunately there have been recent problems with overdoses of opiates in the area. Thankfully the police are working hard to try to address the issue and at this time they do seem to have it under control. All in all, I enjoy my life here. It is peaceful with lots to do if you like the outdoors. Read Less
