Odd is an unincorporated place in Raleigh County, West Virginia, United States. It is located along Tommy Creek. Only a post office is located there, with small residences spread along the nearby roads.
History
The community's unusual name has attracted attention from writers. Townspeople were encouraged to think of an "odd" name for their town, hence the name.
Odd went viral in 2020 when Mark Laita's YouTube channel, Soft White Underbelly, posted its first video of the Whittaker family, long-time residents of the small town who are inbred.
