Moved to West Virginia at retirement in 2016 from DC area. I am way more educated then your average West Virginian. What would I say about the people of West Virginia?  So many suffer from "impulsivity" where they cannot plan ahead or wait for fulfilment of their dreams. Neighbors got a cash settlement for car accident and talked about building a house to replace their 1990's trailer. Spent 10K to build a road up to top of mountain to house site. But then spent the rest of the money on adult toys: tractor they didn't need, more ATV's, second riding lawn mower and garden that sits abandoned and weedy. It's been three years and still no house and likely never will be.
