What it’s like
The place. Meadowview is a very small community in Washington County, Virginia, where most people know their neighbors by name. 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. A four-year degree is held by fewer adults than you might find in larger towns, and the typical trip to work is short.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with shops, manufacturing, and restaurants, hotels and entertainment close behind. Across Washington County, some of the largest workplaces are Washington County Public Schools, Johnston Memorial Hospital and Emory & Henry University. A small share of people work from home, and unemployment across the county is a little lower than a year ago.
Things to do. The Barter Theatre is a theatre a short drive away, and the William King Museum is a museum also within a short drive. Channels State Forest, a protected area a short drive away, is a place for walking and time outdoors. For a longer outing, Hungry Mother State Park is a protected area a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Meadowview’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, very 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 Washington County and the Kingsport-Bristol, TN-VA metro.
