As a resident of Virginia Beach and a business owner in both cities, I can assure both of you that both cities are not on the decline and there's much more evidence to support the argument that both cities are improving in many/most areas.

If you are looking for a simple, hassle-free quality of life, they are in decline. If you are looking for urban sprawl, traffic, and long commutes, both cities are improving. It is all in the individual preferences. I do not prefer city life. If I did, I would be in Northern Virginia, not Hampton Roads.

What the heck is a simple, hassle-free quality of life?

You do not prefer city life, but live in Newport News and are unhappy with the schools? Seems odd.
