Two things to know before you quote a number
Towns are not capped at 6%. Va. Code § 58.1-3833 caps counties on meals; § 58.1-3840 governs cities and towns and sets no ceiling. Nine towns levy 8% and four levy 10% on lodging. Those rates are correct.
A blank is not a zero. Blank means no primary source established the rate. Zero means a source affirmatively says there is no such tax, or the taxation chapter was read and contains no such levy. Select a locality to see which. 68 jurisdictions produced neither rate — 65 of them small towns that publish no code and no rate anywhere — and 13 more produced one of the two.
