Gauley Bridge is a rural town in Fayette County, West Virginia. In this case study, I use publicly available data and community interviews to explore this geographically isolated and sparsely populated community. Once known as a town reliant on coal mining, the town has since experienced an economic decline that has become all too common in rural areas. As a result, Gauley Bridge has also struggled with health disparities, food insecurity, and school closures. Despite these difficulties, the town maintains its culture of resilience, which is evident through an analysis of its community capitals.
