Farmville, Virginia is a lively small college town (home to Longwood University) with a walkable historic downtown, regular community events, and easy access to outdoor recreation like the scenic High Bridge Trail State Park—perfect for multi-week stays that feel social, comfortable and far from boring. Affordable short-term housing and a friendly, walkable layout make it easy to relax between shifts and explore local cafes, breweries and weekend activities.
For bigger-city options and specialist services, Lynchburg and Richmond are both within roughly 75 miles for easy weekend trips.
