Newburg, WV

Tucked into the hills of western Preston County, Newburg is a quiet, close-knit mountain community with deep roots in West Virginia's rail history. Originally built as a stop along the Baltimore and Ohio line, today it is home to fewer than 300 residents who enjoy a relaxed rural pace. Despite its modest footprint, Newburg provides essential local services for the surrounding valley, supported by an active volunteer fire department, emergency ambulance services, and a welcoming senior center. For anyone looking for scenic country living with affordable space, Newburg offers peaceful surroundings and easy access to outdoor recreation, all within a reasonable drive of Kingwood and Morgantown.
