When did you move there?
I lived in City Center all last year and I swore it was a paradise within Newport News, but once I hit Jefferson I was in a different world.
I work in the Denbigh area and its completely different than where I am now (CNU). I was unloading a truck out back earlier this week and some random
dude walks up to my private dumpster (which is locked, by the way) and starts shaking on the doors trying to get it open. He moves on to the next one
and continues down the row. When he first walked up with trash/etc. in his hands I thought he was just throwing it away, but I couldn't have been more wrong.
