Virginia Beach was listed among Newsweek’s top 25 beach towns in America and Reader’s Digest included Virginia Beach among the nation’s 20 best boardwalks.

The Teal Mango, a digital platform highlighting the South Asian diaspora, named Virginia Beach the #5 best city to live in the United States. This ranking considered overall quality of life to include affordable living, growth opportunities, comfort and entertainment.
