- Western Ridge neighborhood in Crozet
- Old Trail neighborhood in Crozet
- Preddy Creek neighborhood in Ruckersville
- Westhall neighborhood in Crozet

If you’re interested, these are the some of the best places to get Christmas trees in the Charlottesville area, and this story explains and dispels some of the mythology around Dr. Seuss, the Grinch, Hooville and Charlottesville.
