Wytheville: I-77 - MM 41.7 - SB
Wytheville has served as the seat of Wythe County in southwestern Virginia since the late 18th century. The town lies in the Appalachian Ridge-and-Valley region, close to Big Walker Mountain, where long, parallel ridges shape routes through this part of the state. Its position at the junction of Interstate 77 and Interstate 81 has made it an important road hub for traffic between the Carolinas, the Ohio Valley and the Mid-Atlantic. In the centre, the Wythe County Courthouse anchors a compact downtown. Wytheville was also the birthplace of Edith Bolling Wilson, who became First Lady of the United States during Woodrow Wilson’s presidency. Local government, long-distance travel and mountain geography all define the town’s role in Virginia.

Among the regions of the United States, Virginia stands out for its sweep from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Chesapeake Bay. Its varied terrain includes the Shenandoah Valley, the Piedmont of the central counties, and a long Atlantic-facing coast. Richmond, on the James River, is Virginia’s capital and a major centre of American Civil War history; farther east, Jamestown was the site of England’s first permanent settlement in North America, founded in 1607. Shenandoah National Park and its Skyline Drive trace the crest of the Blue Ridge. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around Virginia.

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.
