What it’s like
The place. Ringgold is a small community in Pittsylvania County, in the south of Virginia, where most homes are lived in by their owners. The population is on the older side, and household incomes run below the county's, which gives the town a quiet, settled feel. Winters are colder than in much of the country, summers are hot, and the area gets plenty of rain.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, in manufacturing, in shops, or in the building trades. Unemployment in the county has eased over the past year, and there are a little more jobs than there were before. The commute is a drive of some length for many, and fewer adults hold a four-year degree than in many parts of the country.
Things to do. Virginia International Raceway, a race track a short drive away, is the best known place to visit nearby. The Sandy River, also a short drive away, is a river where people can spend time outdoors.
