With UPG practice locations throughout central and northern Virginia, you can easily find a place that you’ll love to call home. Virginia is brimming with natural beauty, cosmopolitan flair and small-town hospitality. Our area is home to renowned farm-to-table dining, excellent shopping, theater, music, vineyards, craft breweries and endless leisure activities. Shenandoah National Park and Skyline Drive are nearby. Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy our area’s whitewater rafting, kayaking and rappelling. And history is everywhere — from 18th century Michie Tavern and Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello to the Lewis & Clark Exploratory Center to Civil War battlefields and other sites in and around Albemarle County. There’s also a great selection of homes in welcoming neighborhoods, as well as urban and rural locations. Public transportation is excellent, and you’re just a short drive from the beach or Washington, D.C.
