Small-town vibes with suburban amenities in Ona
Ona abuts suburban areas, but it isn't exactly a suburb. It's not exactly a rural community, either. Residents say this in-between space is what makes Ona special: They get to enjoy the recreational and social offerings of a remote small town, with the schools and housing options of a well-developed area. "From a national standpoint, you get a lot more bang for your buck here," says Realtor and appraiser Chuck Boggs III of River Valley Properties. "Your dollar is going to go farther. A $300,000 house here can get you 2,500 square feet on a nice piece of property, and the home has likely been updated."
Ona has a mix of custom new build homes as well as ranches and cottages.
Ona is a quiet rural community that has many housing styles including colonial.

Larger new builds in Ona frequently sport a new traditional design motif and sell for $325,000 to $600,000. "You're definitely getting more new housing stock here than in Kanawha County," Boggs says.

A top ten middle school for West Virginia
Students begin at Ona Elementary School, rated B-plus by Niche. However, a small portion of students in the western portions of Ona attend Nichols Elementary, also rated B-plus. After that, students begin attending Milton Middle School, rated A-minus and ranked one of West Virginia's top 10 public middle schools. Cabell Midland High School, which is B-rated, is the final step for most students. Many are enticed by the high school's championship athletics, including baseball, softball and an especially competitive track and field team. Although recent laws passed by the state legislature have made it easier for West Virginia's high schoolers to choose where they attend – An option that has been particularly popular in Cabell County.
Nichols Elementary is a small public school with approximately 200 students and a student teacher ratio of 13 to 1.

RC Clubs and stockcar races
The Ona Speedway and Airpark once hosted official NASCAR races. Nowadays, it's reserved for hobbyists, semipros and community events. "They have an RC field in there, too," says Realtor Lisa Eden of Old Colony Realtors. "My husband flies radio-controlled airplanes there, so that's a destination that I've known about for years and years, but it also brings in a lot of people." Locals often frequent the small track. "The weird thing is that the airfield is right in the middle of a neighborhood, for the most part," Eden says, "but the guy that owns it is really great at working with all the different clubs that can be there. He's very involved in the community."

Roadside farmstands and department store shopping
There aren't many commercial options in Ona. U.S. Highway 60 is home to a few chain restaurants, consignment shops, convenience stores and farm stands selling fresh eggs. But a quick drive west is all it takes to reach the dozens of restaurants, home improvement stores, book shops and department stores at the Huntington Mall. Many go there to spend a weekend afternoon shopping, play Skee-Ball at Dave & Buster's or catch a matinee at the Mall's Cinemark movie theater.

Widening I-64 to increase capacity
U.S. 60 and Interstate 64 pass through Ona, connecting with shopping centers and major employers across the region. The section of I-64 between Huntington and Nitro has received numerous lane widenings and other improvements in recent years. However, there is only one access point to I-64 near Ona, which requires driving through mall traffic to reach.
Some risk of flooding and blizzards
The Mud River snakes through Ona, leaving a string of flood zones along its course. Most residential areas are not in a flood zone. However, riverine erosion and landslides can be a concern for some property owners, meanwhile, lower-lying areas can become inundated during storms, closing some routes for drivers. Road closures can also occur during winter storms. However, the county maintains its own snowplows, and the state's Department of Transportation allocates around $55 million annually for snow removal services.
