An article appeared in the Richmond Times-Dispatch on September 4, 2011 entitled "On Northern Neck, Fighting the Fade." Census figures show that Lancaster County is the "oldest" county in Virginia, with a median age of 54. Northumberland County is right behind with a median age of 53.6. All four counties of the Northern Neck are experiencing "natural decrease" in population, which is a phenomenon in which there are more deaths than births.
