Nestled between the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Interstate 81 corridor, Virginia Tech, Radford University and two major hospitals, Christiansburg serves diverse collegiate, commercial and professional industries, while still maintaining the vibe of a small town. While we may be located in one of the fastest growing areas in Virginia, Christiansburg still has more than 2,000 acres of undeveloped land, providing us with a unique opportunity for smart and progressive urban planning.
Recreation is a large part of Christiansburg’s identity, and you can see why when you visit our local parks and sports complexes and explore the Huckleberry Trail, which connects to neighboring Blacksburg. No matter the season, there are always exciting programs available through our Aquatic and Recreation centers. And with a growing festival scene and brand new Farmers Market, we’re all about bringing people together.
Christiansburg is the place to work, live and play – and we hope you’ll join us.
