This. Not mountains, not valley, what you get in between those two is foothills!

That website is not based on the official regional map of the state. It seems to be a joint tourism effort by several counties, that doesn’t include Albemarle/ Charlottesville.

Albemarle is officially part of the Piedmont region.

It’s not in the valley or in the mountains.

Do you say I went to school in the mountains of Virginia? Or in the Shenandoah valley?

I grew up going to Charlottesville and never truly described it as either.

Which is correct?


Neither. It is the Piedmont. Foot of the mountains. Hilly. Not mountainous.

It’s not in the Shenandoah Valley—that valley is on the other side of the Blue Ridge Mountains from Charlottesville (think Harrisonburg, Staunton, Lexington, etc.). UVA/Charlottesville is in the Piedmont, at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
