Why Downtown?

Downtown Wytheville Virginia is a great place to live, start your new business or re-locate an existing one.

Wytheville is a historic, business-friendly community situated at the intersection of Interstates 77 & 81 in Southwest Virginia and less than an hour from the states of North Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia. Three major US routes (11, 21 and 52) supplement the interstates and make Wytheville a transportation hub for commercial and recreational access to National Forests & Recreation areas and three Virginia State Parks. Additionally, the community borders on the 7,500 acre Big Survey Wildlife Management Area and the Town’s 1,800 acre Crystal Springs Recreation Area.
