Rich in natural resources, activities, and breathtaking views, the outdoors in the NRV provides a constant source of entertainment for adrenaline junkies and leisure-seekers alike. Whether you want to spend your time relaxing on the water, hiking up a mountain, or biking on roads or trails, Virginia’s New River Valley has something unique to offer you.
We experience each season in a beautifully striking yet mild manner. Fiery leaves engulf the trees each fall until winter comes crisp and fleetingly. Spring returns, and the mountains burst to life to welcome in the summer, which settles in and pulls you out of the house for endless adventure.
Whether you want to live downtown or along a country road, Virginia’s New River Valley has a home for you! From apartments to starter homes to high-end golf course living, residents can find a variety of housing options in every NRV community.
Virginia Tech is the Commonwealth’s leading research institution. The university’s main campus, located in Blacksburg, sits on 2,600 acres and caters to more than 33,000 students. VT offers 250 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, has research facilities across the state, offers study-abroad opportunities, and owns and utilizes a 1,800-acre agriculture research farm.
New River Community College’s (NRCC) main campus is located in Dublin, VA, where it supplies the entire region with dedicated and skilled employees. The satellite STEM campus in Christiansburg provides extra convenience for continued education, high school students who want to start their education early, and a focused learning location for STEM students.
NRCC provides eligible high school and homeschool graduates with two years of tuition-free education through the ACCE (Access to Community College Education) program. This public/private partnership is designed to reduce student debt and help students graduate ready to enter the workforce or transfer to a four-year university. In return, participants complete community service hours in their locality each year of the program.
Located at the VT Corporate Research Center in Blacksburg, VCOM operates in a public/private collaboration with Virginia Tech to share resources for the purposes of education, research, and student activities. VCOM’s mission is to prepare globally-minded, community-focused physicians to meet the needs of rural and medically underserved populations and promote research to improve human health.
