The schools are great in Elkins. I lived there for 23 years. The jobs are good, however it depends on the kind of work that you want. Good luck

Elkins is very very small. If that is what you are looking for. Also, not much near Elkins plan on a drive to get to civilization...

Actually the jobs in Elkins are not good. The only choices you have are mostly fast-food restaurants, Wal-Mart, K-Mart, grocery stores or the Bruce Hardwoord floor factory in Beverly.

I'm not sure about the schools in Elkins or how much employment there is. My DH and I spend a total of a few weeks each year camping and hanging out around Elkins. They have a Walmart, Krogers, and a good bit of other areas to shop. The area is absolutely breath taking with the mountains! We plan to retire there someday
