    "I do not live here anymore. But when I did, my commute anywhere took only about 5-15 minutes wherever I was going. There is not public transportation, so without a car, commuting could be difficult on foot or on a bike"

  • Jeffrey A. B.
    "I have worked and lived here since 1976. The community of Elkins is rich in family, church and our neighbors. We still have church weddings, large family reunions and large visitations at the funeral homes. Elkins is a college town and contributes much to the economy. The community is well known for The Forest Festival during the Fall. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, President Nixon, President Ford, and President Carter were here as Special Parade Marshalls. It is a huge gathering and very successful. There is much nostalgia and historical value to enjoy for all"
