The place. Clear Brook is a town in Frederick County, Virginia. Across Frederick County, most homes are lived in by their owners, and the county's population is on the older side, with many residents well past middle age. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm, with July the warmest, and the area gets a good amount of rain and melted snow over the year.

Work. Unemployment across Frederick County was a little higher in August than it had been a year before, and the county had fewer jobs last year than the year before that.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Frederick County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. 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 Frederick County and the Winchester, VA-WV metro.
