What it’s like
The place. Enterprise is a small community in Harrison County, West Virginia, where nearly all homes are lived in by their owners. Typical home values are modest, and few residents are living below the poverty line. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm, with July the warmest. Rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in government, in shops and in professional and business services. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and the typical commute is a fairly long one, so most people travel out of town for work. Across Harrison County, United Hospital Center and Harrison County Schools are among the largest workplaces, and the Veterans Health Administration is another.
Things to do. The Tygart Valley River, Simpson Creek and Buffalo Creek are rivers and streams a short drive away, good for time by the water. Farther out, a longer drive takes you to Tygart Lake State Park and Valley Falls State Park, both protected areas for walking and being outdoors.

Natural hazards

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Enterprise’s census tracts, 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 Harrison County and the Clarksburg, WV metro.
