East Highland Park, Virginia: Quiet, but Close to Fun 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) Living here in East Highland Park, Virginia for the last 3 years has been great.

If you want to be close to the city, but have some peace and quie ...Read More t, then living in East Highland Park, Virginia should fit your needs. The overall cost of living here is not astronomically high compared to some of the other suburbs of Richmond. The crime rate overall is okay, but like most areas we have seen an increase in some drug use. The local police department seems to be addressing those issues the best that they can though.

The best areas in East Highland Park, Virginia are the many things that you can find to do around this area. There is Kings Dominion Amusement Park just north of Richmond that you can easily travel to for a fun day of roller coaster riding. There are also multiple museums close by for your enjoyment.
