Morgantown, West Virginia, offers small town atmosphere with big town advantages. The city is nestled in the Allegheny mountains. It is adjacent to the 921,000-acre Monongahela National Forest established in 1920 and encompasses one of the most ecologically diverse areas in the United States. Elevations range from just under 1,000 feet to 4,863 feet above sea level. The region provides opportunities for world-class mountain biking, rock climbing, white-water rafting, and skiing. The local public school system is consistently ranked highest in the state with a new, tuition-free charter school (Pre-k through 9th grade) opening in fall 2022. Local high schools have a 95% graduation rate and surpass state and national averages for Advanced Placement test scores. Morgantown is the primary economic engine for the region and is the home of West Virginia University, an R1 research institution. WVU's flagship medical school and teaching hospitals, including the WVU Rockefeller Neurosciences Institute, are in Morgantown. WVU has a thriving arts program and exciting Division I (Big 12 Conference) sports programs. In addition to WVU, the local economy is supported by a thriving small business community and major employers including the National Energy Technology Laboratory and the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health. Morgantown has an extensive rail-trail system for walking, running, and biking. We also have an MLB Draft League baseball team (West Virginia Black Bears) during the summer months. On the eastern edge of town, majestic Cheat Lake is a 1,730-acre man-made reservoir. The Monongahela River winds through the middle of town. Either of these two waterways is a perfect getaway where you can find spots for swimming, canoeing, kayaking, boating, and fishing.
