MORGANTOWN, West Virginia: BORING? - What We Actually Found

my family and i just moved to Morgantown WV in march this year from living in upstate NY and let me tell you the people here are super nice and having greenery around all the time is so beautiful!!! would like to get out of a college town in the next couple years but we love calling WV our home!! thank you for this video!

Personal experience - the roads in Morgantown can be treacherous during winter storms.

I love Morgantown. Born and raised West Virginian here and raising my family in these beautiful hills. We live in a very rural area within an 1.5 hours drive from Morgantown, where I work part-time. The area can get very busy during the school year. I do find it a beautiful, quaint town with a lot to offer, though. I have traveled all over the US and still say the friendliest people are from right here in WV. Glad you enjoyed your visit and shared this video. New sub here as I just found you guys and like the way you explore.

I live in Morgantown and I swear people like you should just move here and become part of our community... Because people such as yourselves would love it even more 😀😀 Thank you for this video

The Warner theater was absolutely gorgeous inside. Old time red carpet, ropes, gold trim accents. Carved moldings. A treasure left to ruin. Seen many movies there growing up. Love my town. Great video. Thanks.

Lol that hill you are looking at around the 7:45 mark is where I learned how to stop and start a standard vehicle on a hill, as well as most of my family. When I was a very young child my father used to be the manager of the Book Exchange store there on the right at the top of the hill when it was owned by John Fleming!

Some people might like boring or sleepy. They might see the insanity of NYC or Chicago and say: "Naw dog, let's go to Morgantown." I live in a small town myself. I want to live in some kind of civilization, but give a boring and sleepy place. Don Knotts calls Morgantown his hometown. I'm glad you were able to visit his statue.

Thank you for making this video - I was born and raised in Morgantown, so a bit homesick after watching. :) I originally intended to comment on your mispronunciation of the name of the river, but after reading the comments now I just want to ask you not to cut out those parts! And please make more videos of this beautiful region of the country!

My grandfather's home.. I love it in Morgantown.. West v gotta be one of the most beautiful places in America

Morgantown has a great Indian restaurant called Fresh Mint which sells dosas and a few other South Indian selections. South Indian is not overly commonly served at Indian restaurants in the US so it’s kind of unique.

Morgantown is always listed among the Top 20 College Towns in America. The first ranking I saw was over a decade ago by Huffington Post when WVU was a member of the former Big East Conference for all sports. Currently WVU is a member of the Big XII Conference and Morgantown continues to be ranked among America's best college towns along with conference rivals Ames, IA, Lawrence, KS and Manhattan, KS. Some conference fans refer to Morgantown as the Big XII's "mountain outpost" back East.

The pepperoni rolls you got are from Fairmont from the original bakery of pepperoni rolls. It was started by an Italian coal miner who came up with them as a lunch the miners could eat requiring no refrigeration.

as someone from WV Morgantown is one of our bigger cities I love my state it's a beautiful place 💙💛

My Dad helped make the metal walkway structure on top of Dorseys knob 💕 its definitely my favorite spot 👌

It’s ingenuous to the town to completely omit the university, and the entirety of the divisions of Evansdale, Sunnyside, and Suncreat that also make up Morgantown. The culture of the university and the interactions between the students and townies are what make Morgantown special

Looks like a nice little town. West Virginia doesn't have any real, true cities, but it sure has a lot of beautiful scenery. Too bad that state is so economically depressed.

You have no idea how much I missed seeing my home and seeing your video of my hometown is amazing ❤️

Morgantown is a college town, and college towns are almost never boring. I haven't been to Morgantown, but when I was going to UVA in Charlottesville one weekend a bunch of us girls went on a road trip to the annual Roadkill Festival in Marlintown, WV and it was a hoot!

moh-non-gu-hey-la river Monongalia county.. 2 similar but different words.

Thank you for making this great video, it kind of made me miss morgantown a lot. It's been almost ten years since I graduated from WVU. Hope that one day I can take my wife and kid to walk on the streets again which I was so familiar with.
