Lindytown is an unincorporated community in Boone County, West Virginia, United States.
[1] Lindytown was founded at the time Charles Lindbergh made his famous flight across the Atlantic and is based on a 50-acre (200,000 m2) tract of land.
The community has also been known as "Robin Hood" to locals, due to the former Armco Robin Hood Division Coal Operations mines, which were located in the area.
Armco sold the Robinhood Division to Peabody Coal and eventually the mines were closed and the land was reclaimed.
Lindytown has received much media attention due to the town's proximity to a large mountain-top removal operation owned by Alpha Natural Resources (previously Massey Energy).
