About Jewell Ridge
Sitting high along a ridge in Tazewell County, Jewell Ridge is a quiet mountain community with deep roots in Southwest Virginia's coal country. Built in the 1920s as a planned company town above the mines, the settlement grew along a winding main road with its own homes, church, and community hall. Today, it offers peaceful living with sweeping Appalachian views and a close connection to local history. It feels remote, but the nearby town of Richlands gives residents an easy drive to everyday shops, healthcare, and dining down in the valley.
