The Forest market
Forest sits just west of Lynchburg in Bedford County and reads as its upscale suburban neighbor. The housing skews newer and larger than the city, with master-planned subdivisions and estate-sized lots, and it is home to Thomas Jefferson's Poplar Forest.
Much of the demand here comes from buyers who want the Bedford County school system and more space, while staying an easy drive from Lynchburg's jobs and amenities. Lower county tax rates compared with the city are part of the draw.
