Good luck. I've heard pretty good things about WV - especially how cheap property is. Afterall, all of the state's five residents can't be wrong!

From what I've read of the state, I hope you like hillbillies.

Not all of the state is hillbillies - the Martinsburg/Charlestown area is surprisingly modern. However, if you're in the south or west part of the state, it can be shockingly poor and depressing. Depressing to the point of families who have never seen a tooth brush and barely scrape a living out for themselves.

I haven't been to Charleston (in fact hadn't heard of it until this thread), but the N/NE area of West Virginia tends to be pretty well built up - and more construction is going in every month, so hopefully you shouldn't have trouble finding a place to rent.

How does a W.Virginia mother know her daughter's on the rag?

Her son's dick tastes funny.

har har.

Seriously - some nice country in the Martinsburg area...nice mountains to see in the state as well. Dunno about jobs, I've always heard the job market was rather lacking. Cheap to live there tho if you get work.
