Culpeper

The town of Culpeper extends across 7.31 square miles of land at the foothills of Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains within the Piedmont Plateau region.

George Washington surveyed the original ten blocks of downtown Culpeper in 1749, establishing the foundation for what would become the central district.

The Packard Campus for Audio-Visual Conservation maintains an extensive collection of American film, television programs, and sound recordings in temperature-controlled vaults.

The town connects to major cities through Routes 29, 15, 3, 522, and 211, with Interstate Routes 66, 64, 81, and 95 accessible within forty miles.

The population increased by 34 percent between 2010 and 2020, transforming from 16,379 to 21,923 residents due to regional employment opportunities.
