Greenwood straddles the eastern foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia’s Albemarle County, where the route toward the mountain crest has long connected the Piedmont with the Shenandoah Valley. U.S. Route 250 follows the historic Three Notch’d Road through the community, reflecting this corridor’s role in crossing central Virginia. Greenwood and nearby Afton give their name to the Greenwood-Afton Rural Historic District, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
