York County (formerly Charles River County) is a county in the Commonwealth of Virginia. As of the 2010 census, the population was 65,464. The county seat is the unincorporated town of Yorktown. Located on the north side of the Virginia Peninsula, York County is included in the Virginia Beach-Norfolk-Newport News, VA-NC Metropolitan Statistical Area. York County is situated on the York River and many tributaries; the county shares land borders with the independent cities of Williamsburg, Newport News, Hampton, and Poquoson, as well as James City County and shares a border along the York River with Gloucester County. Formed in 1634 as one of the eight original shires (counties) of the Virginia Colony, York County is one of the oldest counties in the U.S. Yorktown is one of the three points of the Historic Triangle of Colonial Virginia, and the location where victory was accomplished in 1781 at the conclusion of the American Revolutionary War to gain independence from Great Britain. In modern times, the county is home to several important U.S. military installations. There are many miles of waterfront residential and recreational areas. York County adjoins the Busch Gardens Williamsburg theme park and includes within its borders the affiliated Water Country USA water park, the Yorktown Riverfront area, Yorktown Battlefield and Visitor Center and Yorktown Victory Center. Yorktown is linked by the National Park Service's bucolic Colonial Parkway with Colonial Williamsburg and the Historic Jamestowne and Jamestown Settlement attractions at Jamestown, Virginia. Heritage, tourism to the Historic Triangle draws international visitors and is a major economic activity for the county. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/York_County,_Virginia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_... |
