Charlottesville City, Virginia
Charlottesville is an independent city, separate from surrounding Albemarle County with its own zoning, schools and tax base, and the University of Virginia along with UVA Health dominates employment, student housing demand and the land market. At roughly ten square miles with no ability to annex, supply is the whole story here, so the action is density and redevelopment on West Main, the Downtown Mall and the corridors out to US 29, with overflow growth landing in Albemarle.
