Elkins is a fairly small town and very safe place to live. We have a great college right here and it is a good place to live if you want a variety in weather and temperatures. We have it all in that respect. The mountains are beautiful here also. People are nice and friendly. There is not a lot for the kids to do however. We have one movie theater and a YMCA. You have to do some traveling for any really cool activities.[read more...]
