What it’s like

The place. Colliers is a very small community in Brooke County, West Virginia, in the northern panhandle of the state. With so few residents, it feels more like a handful of neighbors along the road than a town center. A noticeably larger share of people live below the poverty line than is typical, and the county's household incomes are modest. Homes here are valued well below what many parts of the country would expect.

Work. People who live in Colliers work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in restaurants and hotels, and in manufacturing. Across Brooke County, the largest workplaces include Weirton Medical Center, Brooke County Schools and Bethany College. Unemployment in the county has eased compared with a year earlier, and the county had more jobs last year than the year before.

Things to do. Small streams, Alexanders Run and Mechling Run, run in or beside town. A short drive away is Meadowcroft Rockshelter, a museum site. A longer drive brings you to the Ohio River and to the Andy Warhol Museum. Winters here are cold and summers warm, with a good deal of rain and melted snow through the year.

Natural hazards

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Colliers’ 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 Brooke County and the Weirton-Steubenville, WV-OH metro.
