Did you know that West Virginia is the only state in the U.S. that is entirely within the Appalachian Mountain range?. West Virginia became a state in "1863" after seceding from Virginia during the American Civil War.
It is known for its beautiful landscapes, including the "Appalachian Mountains" and the "Monongahela National Forest". The state is also home to many outdoor recreational activities, such as hiking, fishing, and hunting. Today, it is known for its coal mining industry and for being the birthplace of the famous country singer, Brad Paisley.
In this video, we will be taking a look at some of the best places to live in the state, including information on "Home Prices", "Rents", and other important facts.

  • I relocated to Huntington, WV for my retirement, having lived most of my life in California. I have never regretted my decision to move to this beautiful area and wild and wonderful WV!😀🤩
  • @sorcery_
    I have made a list of what cities to live in when I graduate and WV is meeting a lot of my needs. I currently and in Las Vegas but am from Chicago and I miss the nature but I don’t miss the snow.
  • @mikebeal5002
    The description of Charleston shows a picture of Richwood High school, which is 100 miles east of Charleston. It was demolished in 2017 after flooding.
  • @maryj2671
    Been through WV while traveling elsewhere. It is so beautiful! Wild and Beautiful WV! Fiesta Homerlaughlin factory near Chester is awesome to visit!
  • @stevehall8227
    I grew up in Parkersburg, 30 years ago the only good jobs required you to have a bachelor’s degree AND have an in at a chemical plant. Since I left the state has become an unemployed, junkies dream. Now days from what I’ve read , the town has been tearing down the buildings that made it reasonably cool to see.
  • @sephorakc3372
    Thanks for the informations. I’m much interested in West Virginia at this pot especial with #1 and #3 Wish you had more informations added. Such as weather and salaries for work and daycares..
  • @davevan8864
    I am WV born and after living in So Cal and NC returned here to live. Note: Huntington has had a lot of issues with illegal drug trade. They are working on cleaning it up but while my kids were at Marshall U (no mention in video?) saw it first hand. Morganton is a college town. Known as the number one party school in the US.....know that going in. thx
  • @Biker65
    It's a great state. I love it.
  • What i find very interesting about WV, is that you can ride ATVs/UTVs on the streets there. And the state has made a commitment to provide riding trails for them. That's a freedom they have, that most states don't have. If WV did away with their state income tax and went with a 5% sales tax. WV would become a Retirement state for sure. Being most retirees, retire to states without state income taxes. I'm planning a trip up there in the fall to ride my UTV and to see what all the fuss is about.
  • Not sure who wrote this presentation, but Bridgeport isn't in the center of the Appalachian mountains. If fact, they aren't even in the WV Highlands
  • @wvtaco4379
    With all respect to the creator, why wasn't Berkeley County (Martinsburg) on the list. Berkeley County is the fastest growing counties in the State. Berkeley County has good paying job openings. One can be in Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia within 30 minutes.
  • @xxyyzzplants131
    You never even mentioned Marshall University! Or that Charleston's water supply is considered a carcinogen.
  • Can someone tell me how can I moved here and work " I'm from South Korea I found West Virginia beautiful" after one friend of mine introduced me to West Virginias nature
