What it’s like
The place. Carrsville is a very small community in Isle of Wight County, Virginia, in the flat, wooded country of the state's southeastern corner. Homes here are valued below what is typical across much of the country, and household incomes across the county run comfortably high. Winters are cool, with a little snow in most years, and summers are hot, with steady rainfall through the year.
Work. Residents of the area work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, professional and business services, and shops close behind. Across Isle of Wight County, some of the largest workplaces are Smithfield North, Isle of Wight County Public Schools and International Paper. The trip to work is a long one, and very few people work from home.
Things to do. Much of what draws people outdoors is protected land and water. Antioch Pines Natural Area Preserve and Blackwater Ecological Preserve are both a short drive away. A longer drive brings you to Merchants Millpond State Park, and the James River is also a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Carrsville’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Isle of Wight County and the Virginia Beach-Norfolk-Newport News, VA-NC metro.
