About Student Housing in Blacksburg
Blacksburg, VA is a classic college town tucked into the Blue Ridge highlands, and Virginia Tech so thoroughly defines it that town and campus blur together. The university's enormous footprint and Hokie culture set the tone, and downtown's North Main Street runs right up against the edge of campus with a tight, walkable grid of student life. Students fill the neighborhoods ringing Tech: the Downtown Eastside, Bennett Hill-Progress, Mountain View, and the pockets toward Southgate Drive. The town sits at elevation, so the tree-lined streets get four real seasons, and the surrounding mountains put trails, the Huckleberry rail-trail, and outdoor recreation within easy reach. Civic life revolves around campus events and a lively downtown.
