Our Community

Step Into Blacksburg and you’ll find excitement, adventure, and opportunity. Located in the beautiful mountains of southwest Virginia, Blacksburg is also home of Virginia Tech, the largest land grant university in the Commonwealth.

Nationally known for its entrepreneurial spirit and community, Blacksburg is an outdoor mecca; a cultural destination; and an ideal place to raise a family. 

A quick trip downtown offers evidence of times gone by with an obvious nod to a thriving and modern day community. With wide brick sidewalks, park benches, outdoor dining, hanging flower baskets, and inviting spaces, downtown is a place for everyone.  In the fall, you’ll hear the rustle of the trees, feel the cool mountain air on your face and enjoy a cup of locally brewed coffee as Blacksburg comes alive for game day or an afternoon at the Farmers Market.

Go on! Step Into Blacksburg! We can’t wait to see you.
