Berkeley County was W.Va.'s fastest growing in last decade
March 23, 2011
Berkeley County was the fastest growing county in West Virginia in the last decade, topping 104,000 people, according to 2010 census data released Wednesday. A gain of 28,264 people — which amounted to a 37.2 percent increase in 10 years — is "the kind of growth that changes the dynamic of a community," said Senate Majority Leader John Unger, D-Berkeley/Jefferson.
Most of Berkeley County's growth happened outside the city of Martinsburg's municipal boundary, which still grew by 15.1 percent, according to the census data. The city's gain of 2,255 residents to reach 17,227 eclipsed Clarksburg, W.Va., to become the state's ninth largest municipality and was the fastest growing among cities over 10,000 in population. The Town of Hedgesville, Berkeley County's only other municipality, saw a 32 percent jump in population, increasing from 240 to 318, according to the census data.
