The Most

Readers vote for the extremes of life in Richmond.

We looked forward to keeping rather unscientific tabs on how you viewed the city. Not surprisingly, though, answers became familiar. Some readers confused our poll with others. And we shuddered to think that one day we might have to add such categories as “Best dog groomer/Northside.”
