Why Live in First Ward

First Ward in Morgantown is a competitive housing market known for its variety of two- and three-bedroom homes, including Foursquare, bungalows, Minimal Traditionals, and some ranch-style houses. Many homes date back to the 1920s through the 1940s, with some newer builds from the 1950s to the 1990s. The neighborhood offers more yard space compared to other urban areas like South Park and Suncrest. Jack Roberts Park and White Park are key features, providing green spaces, playgrounds, sports fields, and hiking trails. The Caperton Trail offers a scenic route for walking and biking along the river. Mundy’s Place, a local pub since 1949, is a popular spot for live music and social gatherings. Shopping needs are met by nearby Giant Eagle Supermarket and stores along University Avenue, with larger shopping options in Sabraton and Suncrest Towne Centre. The neighborhood is known for its vibrant Halloween celebrations and proximity to downtown events like First Friday for the Arts and summer concerts at Hazel Ruby McQuain Park. Despite steep and narrow roads, residents often walk or bike, with downtown Morgantown just a mile away. Major employers like Ruby Memorial Hospital and Mon Health Medical are easily accessible. Schools in the area are highly rated, with Mountainview Elementary, South Middle, and Morgantown High all receiving high marks. The crime rate in First Ward is lower than the national average, contributing to its appeal for families and young professionals.
