Blacksville blends small-town ease with quick connections via WV‑7 to Morgantown and Fairmont, making commutes straightforward and weekends full of options. Set along the historic Mason‑Dixon line, it’s minutes from trailheads, creeks, and picnic spots. Locals frequent the wooded paths and seasonal events at the scenic Mason‑Dixon Historical Park, while hikers and climbers prize the overlooks at Coopers Rock State Forest. Everyday needs are close by, and larger retail, restaurants, and university arts and sports are an easy drive away in the county seat.
Families appreciate that Blacksville sits in Monongalia County, with strong support from the county school district serving students from pre‑K through high school. Community pride runs deep at Clay‑Battelle programs and events, and the calendar fills with festivals, youth sports, and park gatherings that make it easy to meet neighbors. Healthcare is robust for a town this size, with specialty care accessible at WVU Medicine J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital, and broader services and careers tied to West Virginia University and regional energy, healthcare, and tech employers.
Housing ranges from tidy in‑town homes to acreage with room to roam, appealing to first‑time buyers, up‑sizers, and downsizers alike.
