Brookhaven is a small unincorporated community in the U.S. state of West Virginia, located in the north-central region of the state under the jurisdiction of Taylor County. Despite its small size, the community is known for its peaceful rural setting and proximity to natural attractions. The surrounding area is dominated by the hilly terrain of the Appalachian Mountains, which lends itself to outdoor activities such as hiking and fishing. Brookhaven's proximity to larger cities such as Clarksburg provides easy access to public transportation while preserving the typical West Virginia rural lifestyle. The area's economy is based on agriculture and small businesses, reflecting the traditional small town American character.
