What it’s like

The place. Crozet is a community in Albemarle County where most homes are lived in by their owners, and renters are fewer than in many places. Typical home values run high, and so do typical rents, while household incomes across the county are well above what many parts of the country see. Residents tend to be middle-aged, and a four-year degree is common among adults.

Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, professional and business services, restaurants and hotels, or banks, insurance and property. Some of the largest workplaces in Crozet are Henley, an academy for older students, Brownsville ES, an elementary school, and The Lodge at Old Trail, an assisted-living facility. A good number of people work from home, and the typical commute is a moderate one.

Things to do. Rivers such as the Doyles River and the Mechums River are a short drive away, good for time outdoors by the water. A longer drive brings you to Crabtree Falls, a waterfall, and to the Fralin Museum of Art. Winters are cold, with some snow, and summers are warm, with a fair amount of rain and melted snow through the year.
