"Wonderful place for families but could use an upgrade"
Danville is a safe place to raise a family! The schools are top notch and people are pretty nice. There is a difference from the East part of Danville vs. the West. If you want strict academics and young money, go to the East part. If you want more laid-back people and more sport/academic focus in schools, West side is your place. I find the West side is older money, therefore, the people seem to be less flashy and more down to earth.
A big compliant locals have is not having enough stores or places to take kids on a rainy day. The bowling alley and other establishments of that sort need a major makeover. A lot of young families live in Danville and want to see more places to take kids other than the parks.
