    This video reminds me of the blind men describing an elephant. The one who feels the trunk thinks an elephant is like a snake. The one who feels the leg thinks an elephant is like a tree. You’re only describing your tiny part of Virginia.

    Always know ; Virginia is a commonwealth state. There r 7 states total that r commonwealth states. Myself Appalachian mountains r always beautiful and the best of all to live in ! Winters can b brutal, u just have to prepare ahead of time. Winter time is when family spends alot of time together.

    I grew up in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia, in this era, that part of WV is jusr as expensive housing wise as Md, Va and Pa.

    I own a house on 6 acres of land around Wytheville, VA. I own house near city limits in Fairmont, WV which is my primary residence. The property taxes are pretty similar overall. Due to my wife working for WVU medicine which options out insurance for medical, dental, vision insurance. We have blue cross blue shield for prescriptions and peak for everything else which is typical independent insurance which we would have no matter the state. And like everything else some places do not accept our insurance. All and all I don't find much difference when I am living at house in Virginia in comparison to house in West Virginia. Daily life is similar a little different options in stores/shopping but overall both areas have similar stuff if not the same stuff.
    The biggest difference as we drive around Wytheville and into Christianburg/Roanoke area it's more flat, a bit cleaner, better upkept, more farm land, and feels better overall quality of life. I was born in Wytheville, I own my grandparents home there(they passed) my wife was born in Fairmont. However, if we actually decide to sell everything and move it won't be to Virginia or West Virginia.

      Sounds nice! I've never been to Wytheville but it sounds like my kind of place. Now I'm curious, if not WV or VA, where would y'all be going?

    I never knew that people get both states mixed up until recently. I've been in Wva my entire life and Virginia once that I can remember but that's been years ago and it was Roanoke Virginia and I really don't remember much about it. I live in kind of like the southern part of Wva surrounded by mountains and I actually live on the side of a mountain lol...Ramp Capitol of the world, so I've heard lol

    You have a very eastern panhandle biased view of West Virginia. One big plus coming to WV is rural broadband deployment that will allow living in the woods and working remotely anywhere.

      @movingtovawv  Год назад +2

      Thanks for the feedback! We’re slowly but surely making more content specific to different regions in West Virginia. We’ll try to keep our bias aside in the future when talking about the state in a broader way.
      We did mention internet in another video. Have you heard of Starlink? I do believe that will also be helpful as to internet for a lot of folks that are more rural
