Perched on the banks of the Potomac River, Shepherdstown, once considered as a site for the nation's capital, balances its past with the future by blending history, education, culture, and recreation in such a way that it attracts a diverse and vibrant population. Having been dubbed "Georgetown West," this small cosmopolitan community, with its many amenities, is conducive to meeting the needs of the metropolitan area while still maintaining a cozy and quaint atmosphere as the state's oldest town. Ask anyone: Shepherdstown is a great place to visit, an even better place in which to live and work.
