About Dorothy
Dorothy is a small, quiet community tucked into the rugged hills of Raleigh County, West Virginia. Home to around 200 residents, this former coal town sits along the headwaters of the Big Coal River in the heart of the southern coalfields. Life here is slow-paced and deeply rural, shaped by forested mountain hollows, close-knit neighbors, and a long mining heritage that built the area. It offers peaceful Appalachian living for anyone looking to get off the beaten path, with larger stores and regional services a drive away in Beckley.
