What it’s like
The place. Weyers Cave is a small community in Augusta County, Virginia, in the Shenandoah Valley. Household incomes in the county run comfortably high, and very few people in town live below the poverty line. Homes here are typically valued higher than in many parts of the country. Winters are cold, with January highs near freezing and lows well below it, and some snow falls each year. Summers are warm, and rain and melted snow are fairly steady through the year.
Work. Many residents work in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, and in shops. Some of the larger workplaces in town include Houff, which makes fertilizer materials, the Pepsi-Cola bottling plant, and Excel Truck Group, a camper dealer. Unemployment in the county is low and has held steady over the past year, and the number of jobs in the county has grown. A typical commute is a fairly short one, though a good number of people work from home.
Things to do. Grand Caverns, a protected area built around a cave, is a short drive away, as are the North River and the Middle River for time by the water. Deep Run Ponds Natural Area Preserve, also a short drive off, offers a quieter walk in a protected setting. For a longer outing, the George Washington and Jefferson National Forests are a longer drive away.
