George County is located in the heart of Virginia, 25 miles southeast of Richmond. It is primarily a developing suburban county,
bordered on the north by the affluent residential city of Colonial Heights, the broad and historic James River, the industry-rich
City of Hopewell, and rapidly growing Chesterfield County. On the west by the Appomattox River and the City of Petersburg.
Included in Prince George County is the historic and bustling Fort Lee, home of the U. S. Army Quartermaster School.
Prince George County is well located along the State's major interstate highways: I-95, I-85, I-295, US-460 and State
Route 10. Yet the County is largely rural and suburban. The Hampton Roads Ports are just 75 miles to the east, and there
are three international airports withing 75 miles, yet there is a lot of quiet countryside here. The county is strategically
located within a 500 mile radius of 50 percent of the nation's population and 55 percent of its manufacturing activity, thus,
making it an ideal location for business or industry. There are 33 churches in Prince George County. On this
website you will find locations and information about the four United Methodist Churches in the County. Welcome! Let us know
if we can help you get settled. This is a GOOD place to put down roots, and grow... So surf around this site.
