What it’s like

The place. Hague sits in Westmoreland County, on the Northern Neck of Virginia, between the Potomac and Rappahannock rivers. Across the county, most homes are lived in by their owners, and many residents are older, with a median age well above that of the typical American town. Incomes are lower than across the country, and more people live below the poverty line than in much of the nation. Typical home values are modest compared with much of the country.

Work. Many residents work in professional and business services, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in government. Jobs in the county dipped slightly over the past year, while unemployment has eased a little from the year before. Commutes tend to be long, and relatively few people work from home. Fewer adults hold a four-year degree than across much of the country.

Things to do. The Potomac River is a river a longer drive away, with wide water and open views along its banks. U-1105 is an archaeological site a short drive away, a quiet place to learn about the area's past. George Washington Birthplace National Monument, a protected area a longer drive away, marks the Virginia home where George Washington was born.
