What it’s like
The place. Dungannon is a very small town in Scott County, in the mountains of southwest Virginia, where neighbors are likely to know one another by name. Homes here cost less than in most of the country, and household incomes across Scott County sit below the typical American level. Winters are cold, with a good deal of snow, and summers are warm without being hot; rain and melting snow fall steadily through the year.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in manufacturing, shops and the building trades. Across Scott County, the largest workplaces include Scott County Public Schools, Tempursealy, which makes mattresses, and VFP, which makes architectural wall panels and precast concrete. Unemployment across the county is a little higher than a year ago, and the county has fewer jobs than it did the year before.
Things to do. Sinking Creek runs in or beside town, and Guest River and Stony Creek are both a short drive away, along with the protected woodland of Little Stony Creek. A longer drive brings you to Natural Tunnel State Park, a protected area, and to Bristol Motor Speedway, one of the best known race tracks in the region.
