Why Live in Tornado

Tornado, West Virginia, is a small riverside community known for its evolving outdoor recreational opportunities. Despite its tumultuous naming history, Tornado has developed into one of the Charleston area's most active communities for outdoor activities over the past 15 years. The Coal River, once plagued by pollution, has seen significant cleanup efforts, making it a popular spot for kayaking and fishing. The community also boasts the Big Bend Golf Course and Meadowbrook Park, along with a new single-track motorcycle and e-bike trail developed in partnership with the Hatfield McCoy Trail. Residents frequently gather at events like the Coal River Group's flat water paddling event and the Mountaineer RC Flying Club's annual swap meet. Housing in Tornado primarily consists of mid-20th century split levels and ranch-style homes, with few new constructions since the 1980s. Dining options are limited but include local favorites like Bogeys Driving Range and D&I Carryout, known for its fried bologna sandwich. For more extensive shopping, residents drive 15 minutes to St Albans. Tornado's schools are highly rated, with students achieving above-average SAT scores. While the area is car-dependent due to the lack of bus routes, Interstate 64 is accessible via Smith Creek Road, connecting residents to downtown Charleston in about 30 minutes. Although tornadoes are rare, flash floods and landslides pose a more significant risk due to the area's flood zones.
