Christiansburg: DeHart Subdivision: I-81 - MM 118.9 - SB
The landscape around DeHart Subdivision is rolling ground at the edge of the Appalachian Mountains, which has shaped both the built environment and local life. The area belongs to Montgomery County’s New River Valley, named for the New River, which flows north through southwestern Virginia. Its setting is defined less by a traditional centre than by the broad, divided corridors of Interstate 81 and U.S. Route 460, important routes for commuting and freight. Wooded edges, newer development and highway infrastructure meet near Christiansburg, while Blacksburg and Virginia Tech, founded in 1872, form part of the wider county context. This transport corridor reflects the daily movement of a university and service region in the Appalachian highlands.

Among Virginia’s towns, Christiansburg stands out as a commercial and administrative center of the New River Valley. It lies on the uplands of Montgomery County, near the Blue Ridge Mountains and within a region shaped by the New River, one of North America’s oldest waterways. The historic center developed around the county courthouse, reflecting Christiansburg’s enduring role as the county seat. The former Christiansburg Institute forms an important chapter in local African American history: founded after the Civil War, it educated Black students until 1966. Downtown businesses, the nearby presence of Virginia Tech, and access to mountain country give the town an active, practical character.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
