As for Charlottesville - the town is amazing, and after only a little while it's clear why this is consistently rated one of the best places to live in the country. The gem of the city is the Downtown Mall, a six-block stretch of street closed off to cars and lined with restaurants, shops and theatres. I was called "crazy" when I said that College Park could look like Charlottesville one day, and maybe I am, but it's inspiring to see what a real college town looks like.

No, you're not crazy. I nearly shed a tear when I heard they're getting a Ruth's Chris Steakhouse.
College Park has languished for too long, and I mostly blame their elected officials. Hopefully new hotel development on US-1 and the East Campus Initiative will bring new business. I won't hold my breath for a dedicated city police force, though.
