Relocating to Chesapeake Virginia
Although Chesapeake is a large city, it has several urban areas and miles of protected farmland, forests, and wetlands. It's part of the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, and although the name leaves much to be desired, it is a beautiful portion of a marshy region in the coastal plain of Virginia dedicated to natural wildlife, flora and fauna.
Chesapeake, although has been around for decades, became a new "independent city" in 1963. It was created when the former independent city of South Norfolk consolidated with Norfolk County, which was originally formed in 1691. The small city of South Norfolk had become incorporated within the county in 1919 and became its own independent city in 1922. The city of Chesapeake was part of a lot of changes that the local government in southeast Virginia was experiencing between 1952 and 1975. While the region was among the first areas settled in the colonial area, it wasn't until the late 1980s and early 1990s when Chesapeake was either suburban or rural serving as a bedroom community for Norfolk and Virginia Beach. In the 1990s, Chesapeake saw significant growth attracting numerous industries and businesses and in 1963 became its own independent city.
Chesapeake is one of the larger areas in the Hampton Roads area and it's one of the largest cities in terms of land area. It's surrounded by Portsmouth, Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and Suffolk as well as parts of North Carolina. There are six main burros in Chesapeake County, South Norfolk, Butt Road, Deep Creek, Pleasant Grove, Western Branch, and Washington. South Norfolk, used to be his own independent city but was consolidated with the surrounding portions into the city of Chesapeake.
