Kent

Tucked into the Ridge-and-Valley Appalachians of southwestern Virginia, Kent is a place whose character is shaped by the long, folded ridges and intervening valleys of this inland mountain region. It lies in the western part of the Commonwealth, where mountain routes connect small communities across Virginia and toward Tennessee. Rather than an urban centre, Kent reflects the dispersed rural settlement pattern typical of this section of the Appalachian Mountains, with valley farmland and wooded slopes defining the local setting. The surrounding terrain presents a quieter side of Virginia beyond its larger cities, where the contours of the land remain a constant presence.
