Davy, WV

united states

Davy is a tiny mountain community of 186 people in southern West Virginia's coal country. Reach it via US Route 52 through McDowell County, then smaller mountain roads that wind through steep Appalachian hollows. The challenging terrain features sharp curves and steep grades typical of the region's mining heritage. The town sits in a narrow valley between ridges where early settlers found just enough flat ground to build.
