What it’s like
The place. Green Spring is a very small community in Hampshire County, West Virginia, where neighbors are likely to know one another by sight. Homes here are valued below what many buyers elsewhere in the country would expect, and household incomes across the county sit somewhat below the national picture. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and a fair amount of snow, while summers turn warm in July and the year brings a moderate amount of rain and melted snow.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, the building trades and government also employing many. Across Hampshire County, the largest workplaces include Hampshire County Schools, Hampshire Memorial Hospital and Food Lion. Unemployment across the county is a little lower than a year ago, and the number of jobs has held about steady.
Things to do. The Michael Cresap House, a museum, is in or beside town. A short drive away are the Little Cacapon River and the Springfield Wildlife Management Area, a protected area for time outdoors. Berkeley Springs State Park, also a protected area, is a longer drive away.
