Heathsville is the county seat of Northumberland — one of the oldest courthouses in continuous use in Virginia. The town sits at the interior crossroads of the county, away from the Chesapeake Bay shoreline, which means land nearby tends to have lower wetland impact and more usable acreage than the coastal edges around Reedville. Northumberland's $0.74 per $100 tax rate reflects the county's limited services and remote character. LandMatch maps NWI wetland data and FEMA flood zones on every parcel near Heathsville to show what's genuinely buildable.
