QUALITY OF LIFE

West Virginia is within 500 miles of more than half of the U.S. population – and one third of the Canadian population. An excellent interstate system lets residents live where they want, within easy access of larger metro areas of the Mid-Atlantic Region. Meanwhile, West Virginia doesn’t have the traffic and congestion. It doesn’t take an hour to commute 10 miles home, leaving you more time for family, hobbies and life!
