2019 Map of Blacksburg

About this map

Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University anchors the northern portion of this Montgomery County landscape, its sprawling campus and the adjacent Virginia Tech/Montgomery Executive Airport illustrating the modern development of the area. To the south, the community of Christiansburg serves as a regional hub, featuring the Montgomery County Courthouse and the southern terminus of the busy corridor connecting it to Blacksburg. Between these centers, the terrain is marked by significant ridgelines including Price Mtn and Barringer Mtn, while the fringes of the Jefferson National Forest touch the northwestern corner near Shaffer Hollow. This recent survey details the growth of residential developments like Vicker Heights and Belmont Farms alongside traditional sites such as Kanodes Mill and the historic Yellow Sulphur Springs. Local history is well-preserved through numerous burial grounds including Kipps Cem and Roselawn Memorial Cem, offering a clear view of the county's settled past and current expansion.
