Named for the Virgin River that flows through town, this rural desert community offers large-lot living, stunning red rock scenery, and easy access to world-class outdoor recreation.
Typical well depths in the Virgin area range from 250-550 feet. Virgin sits in the Virgin River valley where alluvial deposits from the river overlie Navajo Sandstone and Kayenta Formation bedrock.

Water Conditions in Virgin
Virgin benefits from the Virgin River's recharge of alluvial aquifers along the river corridor, creating productive groundwater zones at depths ranging from 200 feet near the river to 600 feet on elevated bench properties. The river-recharged alluvial aquifer typically produces water with lower mineral content than wells drilled purely through sandstone formations. Water quality is generally good with moderate hardness, though properties in certain areas may encounter elevated iron or manganese that responds well to standard filtration.
Virgin wells often produce good, low-to-moderate-mineral water where the river recharges the alluvial aquifer. Some areas show elevated iron or manganese that responds well to standard filtration.
