Berkeley County, West Virginia
Berkeley County sits in West Virginia’s Eastern Panhandle. It has a bit of everything. Martinsburg is its biggest city and county seat. It has seen some serious growth lately.
You can find apple orchards all over the countryside. In spring, they’re a sea of pink and white blossoms. The county has deep roots. It was here before West Virginia was even a state. Civil War history? You bet.
These days, it’s all about that small-town charm mixed with new development. Outdoorsy types love the nearby Sleepy Creek Wildlife Management Area. Oh, and the local peaches? To die for.

Don’t let the size fool you. West Virginia’s 55 counties are anything but small in character. They climb, twist, and hold tight to the hills. You’ll find coal towns and roads that disappear into the trees.
