Location Description

Oak Hill by the late 1960s had grown into one the 20 largest cities in West Virginia, though the community retains a small-town character and is largely composed of residential neighborhoods, many of which developed in the early 1900s around coal-mining operations. However, Oak Hill is primarily a service and commercial destination. Many of the best known visitor attractions in West Virginia are located in the Oak Hill area, including the New River Gorge Bridge. Hiking, biking, climbing, and whitewater rafting help to attract more than a million tourists to the region annually.
