Make yourself at home in St. Paul
where the coalfields meet the bluegrass in the heart of the Clinch Valley
Chartered in 1911, St. Paul is nestled in one of the most beautiful, diverse areas of SW Virginia. Located on the southern border of Wise County, the community enjoys a caring, small town atmosphere with deep-seated heritage. Once dependent upon the Appalacian coalfields for economic vitality, St. Paul's community has overcome the decline of coal mining by concentrating their efforts on revitalization through the value and benefits of the unique environmental setting in and around St. Paul and the importance and appreciation of the diversity of the river valley called home. St. Paul's economic base is well balanced and growing with a commitment of both residents and businesses to environmental protection and excellence. The Nature Conservancy continues to partner with St. Paul to help maintain the goal of being a national model for environmentally friendly revitalization, promoting nature-based tourism and growing commercial business while maintaining the small town way of life St. Paul is known for. There's no better place to live and do business than amidst the beauty of the Appalachian Mountains on the shore of the Clinch River. But don't take our word for it... come see for yourself!
