About Star City

Set right along the Monongahela River just north of Morgantown, Star City started as an early 1900s glassmaking hub and has evolved into a relaxed, convenient riverside community. While you can still spot nods to its industrial roots, most newcomers are drawn to its quiet residential streets, direct access to the scenic rail-trail, and popular gathering spots like the riverfront park. With quick connections to WVU, local hospitals, and Interstate 79, it offers the ease of small-town living with the perks of a bustling college town right next door.
