The Roanoke Valley (located 250 miles southwest of Washington, D.C. and 196 miles north of Charlotte, North Carolina) is home to over 325,00 people, with over 99,000 of its population living within the city limits.
The city of Roanoke hosts a wide array of festivals, cultural events, and entertainment. Roanoke’s rich arts community and its location in Virginia’s storied Blue Ridge Mountains make it one of the most undiscovered and prized small cities in the US.
