Nestled among the hills of the Ohio River Valley in West Virginia's panhandle, Weirton grew up within the steel industry. It is the only city in the U.S. located in one state while touching two other different states. Store that one away for your tryouts on Jeopardy!Weirton, originally named Holiday Cove, dates back to the 18th Century when it was settled and farmed by pioneers. At the turn of the 20th Century, everything in this sleepy little town changed Ñ including its name! A booming steel mill drew people from all over the world and the area around it grew rapidly. The city became Weirton in 1947; the city's peak in population was back in 1970.

The cost of living is low. Weirton is a small city in the shadow of a much bigger one, and as such is an inexpensive place to call home. Also, rental houses and rental apts are plentiful. This keeps rental costs low, and landlords are typically lenient.Jobs are scarce. Unemployment in Weirton is considerably higher than the national average; the steel mill has had many ups and downs through the years and is now owned by Mittal Steel. Residents are hoping for a rebirth of the industry that built the city.

Getting to Know Weirton

Weirton Heights/Chestnut Hill: Most of the homes here were built during the post World War II boom time, and newer homes and small buildings of apartments for rent were constructed between 1970 and 2000. Weirton Heights was shown in the 2011 film "Super 8," by J.J. Abrams and Steven Spielberg. Many scenes were filmed here and it was portrayed in the movie as Lillian Heights.Marland Heights: Marland Heights is comprised mostly of single-unit houses and small apartment buildings, many of them built during the boom years of the mill, from 1940 to 1970.
