What it’s like
The place. Rhoadesville is a community in Orange County, Virginia, where people live close to one another in a setting of farms, woods and rivers. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm, peaking in July. Snow comes in modest amounts, and rain and melted snow fall fairly steadily through the year.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, or in the building trades. Others work in shops, or in professional and business services. Fewer adults here hold a four-year degree than is common across the country, and jobs in the county have eased a little over the past year.
Things to do. Shenandoah National Park is one of the best known places nearby, a national park a longer drive away. Closer to home, the Robinson River is a river a short drive away, and Lake Anna State Park, a protected area, is also a longer drive away.

Natural hazards
- DroughtRelatively moderate
FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Orange County, 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 Orange County.
