Buckingham County, Virginia

Buckingham County Location Map Virginia

Buckingham County sits right in the middle of Virginia. It’s part of what locals call “the Heart of Virginia.” It all makes sense when you look at our map.

The James River forms its northern border. Imagine canoeing down that on a summer day. Nice, right? This place has seen its share of history. Civil War battles, gold mining, you name it.

These days, it’s all about that rural life. Farms as far as the eye can see. There’s a state forest here too. It’s pure nature. Folks say the night sky here is something else. Stars for days. It’s quiet living, but that’s the appeal.
