Welcome to the City of Ripley, West
Virginia. A small, progressive city, located in the beautiful
Appalachian foothills of the Ohio River, Ripley enjoys the
linkage to the junction of the two major road systems,
Interstate 77 N/S and US Route 33 E/W. The seat of Jackson
County, and surrounded by a pristine valley rich in natural
wonders and beauty, Ripley has always been the regional heart of
activity. Ripley is home to America’s largest small town Fourth
of July celebration. We are “Proud of Our Past and Excited About
Our Future.” We hope you find this website informative and
helpful.
