Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Flat Top is a small place in Dickenson County, Virginia, in the United States. It's called an "unincorporated community," which means it's a group of homes and businesses that isn't officially a town or city with its own local government.

What's in a Name?

Flat Top got its name because of a special place nearby. There was a very flat area, almost like a tabletop, where farmers would let their cows and other animals graze. So, people started calling the community "Flat Top" after this unique pasture.
