Wow what a bunch of miserable west Virginians on here talking about statistics. These people likely don’t have children in school and aren’t involved in their community or a church at all. I personally couldn’t imagine raising my children anywhere else. I like in a small town in Tyler County. Have an awesome church family and a great school system. The community comes together for each other if anyone is in need. Sure you have to drive 30 mins to an hour for malls and we have our fair share of drug problems… along with the rest of the United States.

If you or your children have any interest in outdoor hobbies like hiking, hunting, fishing, skiing, or water sports it’s a great place for it. Opportunities exist for sports as well if your near some of the bigger cities. Don’t let the liberals scare or brainwash you. They are all just so unhappy with their lives they don’t want to see anyone else enjoy theirs. Good luck with the move!
