is that state specific Muni bond funds do no good to residents of other states, except those states with no income tax, as the interest income, while tax free in Virginia, is taxable in New York, for example.

That's also why I asked if it was held in a qualified account, but since it was inherited, I'll assume it isn't.

And yeah, 3% is just fine. Beats what you can get from a CD anyway, plus you aren't paying any income taxes on the interest income.
