Restaurants
The city of Charlottesville has over 300 restaurants — and more than 100 which are locally owned and operated. Below are several Darden student and staff recommendations.
Housing
The Charlottesville area features historic and modern homes and apartments in both urban and rural environments. Many students live just a short walk from the Darden School of Business in apartment complexes or in rental homes. For those who don’t mind living slightly farther from school, there are opportunities to enjoy more scenic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains within ten minutes of Darden, among suburbs, horse farms and smaller communities. Options for downtown living range from chic lofts over the Downtown Mall to newly refurbished houses throughout nearby neighborhoods. Downtown dwellers have easy access to some of the region’s finest restaurants and shopping while living just minutes from Darden.
