In it you will find valuable information
about our wonderful area and all that
there is to see and do in Four Seasons
Country.
This region was shaped in its early
days by a rich tradition of railroading
and mining. It was referred to as the
gateway to the southern coalfields and
mining still provides an integral part
of our economy. Although times have
changed with new technologies, the
mining industry remains strong.

he two Bluefields are the cornerstone
and gateway to the coal fields
of Southern West Virginia and
Southwest Virginia. The economy has
always been supported by the mining industry and
to a large extent that remains the same today. Only
the state line separates the two communities and
its effect is minimal. In fact, the Bluefields were
joined in “marriage” in a symbolic ceremony in the
1920’s.
The residents of the area enjoy many amenities
not often found in one area. We are located within
a days drive from over 50 percent of the nation’s
population. We have easy access to other places
featuring excellent roads, nearby rail transportation,
airports and bus service. You can live in Mercer
or Tazewell Counties knowing that it is safe and
convenient.
We call ourselves Four Seasons Country for a
good reason. Moderate temperatures prevail most
of the year but we do have some winter weather.
The summers are particularly nice and mild. In fact,

if the temperature reaches 90 degrees in Bluefield,
WV free lemonade is served on the streets. This
promotion began in 1939 at the Chamber and
continues today. With its unique climate, Bluefield
is called “Natures Air-Conditioned City.” Our
sometimes rugged terrain offers spectacular changes
of season with vibrant spring colors, magnificent fall
foliage, a hint of snow and delightful summers.
Introduction…
Within close proximity, there are
many recreational opportunities. Skiing,
boating, fishing, hiking, biking and other
sports offer a wealth of choices.
You can now access the HatfieldMcCoy Trail system from right
here in Mercer County. This
system is one of the premier
trails of its kind in the country
and soon will connect with a
similar trail in Tazewell County.
This has become one of the best
trail systems for ATV riders and
attracts fun lovers from around
the eastern part of the country.

H istory
& heritage
T
azewell and Mercer
Counties share a rich
heritage dating back to the
1700s that has helped shape the
values and traditions maintained
by the region’s modern-day
families.
The Bluefield, WV area traces its origin back to
1780 when two American pioneers, Andrew Davidson
and Richard Bailey, built a fort here to protect
their families from hostile Indians. The land was
used mainly for farming until the discovery of the
Pocahontas Coalfields, which marked the beginning of
the Bluefield area’s development as a commercial and
industrial center.
10
Bluefield, West Virginia, named by early residents
for its blue landscape colored by blooming chicory, is
a “sister” city to Bluefield, Virginia. The Virginia city
had been known as Graham in honor of community
leader and railway surveyor Thomas Graham, but
residents voted in 1924 to change the name to
Bluefield to reflect the close economic and social
ties with its West Virginia “sister.” The event was
memorialized by a day of celebration that included the
marriage of a bride from Virginia and a groom from
West Virginia.
Bluefield Virginia is Virginia’s tallest town in
Virginia and Bluefield, WV is the highest city of its
size east of Denver, Colorado
Nature has endowed the Bluefields with spectacular
scenery. The community itself is in a valley, with a
level, narrow center section being occupied mainly
by the railroad and businesses. A story is told of
Will Rogers, here on a speaking engagement years
ago, who is quoted to have said, “if you get tired of
standing in Bluefield, you can always lean against it!”

our Seasons Country’s natural beauty of
the Bluefields, set within the mountainous
terrain, offers a large variety of housing
solutions to find the house of your dreams.
From secluded mountain hideaways to
stately city residences, or if your desires are for
seeking townhouse, condominium, apartment
and mobile-home dwelling, you will not be
disappointed.
For those seeking a peaceful place to retire,
the area is known for having one of the lowest
crime rates in the nation making it more
favorable for personal safety and with variety in
the types and price ranges of housing available,
residents agree that our housing is one of the
most desirable aspects of living in the two
Bluefields.

Retirement
14
P
orches with rocking
chairs are plentiful in the
two Bluefields, but for
retirees who would rather stay
busy, the region has much to
offer.
Much to
Offer to
Retirees
A strong religious heritage
dating back to the 1700s has
continued throughout the
region’s history. Churches of
all sizes representing a broad range of denominations
reach into their surrounding communities with
programs that provide opportunities for retirees to
gather for events, dinners, programs, travel together to
interesting destinations or volunteer for church-related
projects.
Retirees willing to volunteer can also offer
their time and talents to nationally-known civic
organizations or to hospitals, nursing homes, libraries,
food pantries, and schools through
such programs as the Retired and
Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP)
and Foster Grandparents. Other
senior-focused volunteer and activity
programs are available through CASE
of WV and the Clinch Valley Retired
and Senior Citizen’s Program. Cultural
events such as plays and concerts
allow retirees to actually be part of
the cast and crew or to relax in the
audience and enjoy the performances.
Health and housing are critical areas to consider
when choosing a retirement destination, and the two
Bluefields have much to offer in these categories.
Modern hospitals, fitness centers, and doctors
performing state-of-the-art procedures will help
you maintain your active lifestyle, along with your
choice of pharmacies that are part of national chains
or locally-owned. You may be surprised at the
affordability and variety of housing available in
the area. Whether you prefer land for building,
a small house in town, or a big house in the
country, these choices and more are waiting for
you at a cost much less than you would be asked
to pay in other parts of the country. If services
are needed, assisted living and nursing facilities
are available throughout the area and one
facility, a faith-based retirement community,
offers independent living, assisted living and
skilled nursing care all in one location.
Whether your time is spent enjoying the
view from a porch rocker or taking in all that
the two Bluefields have to offer, your mind will
be put at ease with the knowledge that you have
retired in an area with a surprisingly low cost of
living and one of the lowest crime rates in the
nation. Safe, affordable, and fulfilling - what
more could you ask for from your retirement
destination?

azewell County, Virginia and Mercer
County, West Virginia were once part
of Virginia’s large West Augusta region,
but on December 20, 1799, the region became
part of one political entity called Tazewell
28 County. The county was named for Henry
Tazewell, a Virginia political leader who was
among the framers of the Virginia Constitution
in 1776, and was a U.S. senator from Virginia
when the county was established.
The original Tazewell County was formed
from portions of Wythe and Russell counties
and included parts of what are now Giles,
Bland and Buchanan counties in Virginia and
Logan, Mercer, McDowell and Wyoming
counties of West Virginia.

service during the American Revolution, but

to the land speculation boom of the late 18th

and early 19th centuries.
As population grew in various parts of
the huge county, new political entities were
created. Mercer County, Virginia was formed
in 1837. But of course, a major change in the
parallel development of both counties occurred
during the American Civil War when Mercer
County joined the group of 55 western Virginia
counties that broke off from the Old Dominion
to form the 35th state on June 20, 1863.
Virginia is the nation’s oldest representative
democracy and is a commonwealth. Thus, the
state’s governing body is a General Assembly
with a senate and house of delegates. The
governor is limited to a single four-year term
and the other two statewide positions are
lieutenant governor, who presides over the
senate, and attorney general. The local elected
constitutional officers include a county board of
supervisors, sheriff, commissioner of revenue,
circuit court clerk, treasurer, commonwealth
attorney and school boards. Circuit court judges
are appointed by the general assembly.
West Virginia has a state legislature with a
senate and house of delegates and the governor,
secretary of state, treasurer, attorney general
and commissioner of agriculture serving
as statewide office-holders. County elected
officials include three county commissioners,
a sheriff, circuit court clerk, county clerk,
assessor, two circuit court judges, a family law
judge, magistrates, prosecuting attorney and
board of education.
The City of Bluefield, WV has a paid
City Manager form of government with a
five member elected Board of Directors.
Similarly the Town of Bluefield, VA has
five council members, an elected Mayor and
Town Manager. The border between the two
Bluefields offers many unique opportunities for
cooperation between the two entities.

Several businesses evolved in the Mercer-Tazewell
region to provide support services to the rail industry
as well as the extractive industries of coal and timber.
In addition, some service-based businesses evolved
to provide support for the management, workers and
families of the primary industries. The region benefits
from a wealth of healthcare facilities as well as excellent public schools, colleges, universities, and technical schools that enjoy broad-based support.
Mercer and Tazewell Counties both have a variety of
vibrant businesses and industrial parks with infrastructure in place. The labor pool is skilled and available to
work in numerous industries area wide. Flexible job
training opportunities are also available throughout the
two-county region. The area is home to major global

The region’s incredible natural beauty has always

A
strong religious heritage dating
back to the 1700’s has continued
throughout the region’s history
offers a broad range of denominations
representing churches of all sizes that can
be discovered in neighborhoods next door
and across town.
48
The two Bluefields offer a generous
selection of places to worship at
traditional and contemporary churches
along with Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox
Churches and a Jewish Synagogue.
The nature of small town life
intersecting with these world religions
provides opportunities for greater
understanding and compassion between
followers of these various faiths which
suggests that anyone seeking a spiritual
home in the two Bluefields will likely find
one in which to embrace.
