NEW C-VILLE COVER STORY: Living la vida local

We’re back for a second year with a list of firm recommendations and observations about what it takes to be a true local. If you’ve destroyed a beautiful friendship in an argument over the Meadowcreek Parkway, then you’re eligible for a Charlottesville tattoo, for sure. Not that tension and opinions are the sole hallmarks of a true insider. Get thee to Humpback Rocks and the Hamner Theater. Don’t be satisfied to just talk about what a beautiful and smart place this is; get out there and live it! Read this week’s cover story here, and don’t forget to leave your own suggestions in the comments.
