Why is it like that? I'm guessing that Western Virginia has alot more white people, but other than that, is it that much more country/red-necky?
West Virginia is very redneck and in all honesty fukk West Virginia.
The only reason you really want to be in west West Virginia is if you're attending WVU other than that that's it.
There are no jobs. most of the industry if not all of it is gone because that's still the rust belt.
it's been allowed to decay and there's a lot of drug usage including meth heroin and crack.
Not to mention there's been consistent population loss due to the loss of industry.
You really want to be in Virginia.
Virginia has a lot of industry and a lot of great jobs in so many sectors.
Lots of great schools there.
Plus you have access to the DMV which includes Baltimore and Baltimore and DC and those are great cities in their own right.
Plus if you want diversity Virginia is definitely it.
West Virginia is definitely not.
It's another state where the majority of the diversity comes from the college areas. When college its not in session it's just as redneck and Appalachian and white as it gets.
