Neighborhood of Our Apartments near Richmond, VA
Residents of Ashland fondly refer to the town as the “Center of the Universe” as a result of its central location within the state of Virginia. Originally settled in 1840 as a mineral springs resort, Ashland has a rich history that gives it an old town charm. In 1868, Randolph Macon College moved to Ashland, allowing the town to evolve from a railroad resort to a small college town. In addition, the construction of Rt. 1 and I-95 allowed the town to further prosper.
