Glenvar is a census-designated place (CDP) in western Roanoke County, Virginia, United States. The population as of the 2010 Census was 976.[4] The center of the community lies along US 11/US 460 about one mile west of the Salem city limits.[5] The community is home to Glenvar High School which serves most of the western sections of Roanoke County.
