re: Beautiful State but very low in quality of lif -
1/7/2015To Mark who wrote this...I notice you live in WV. If you don't like living here, why don't you move? I have lived in WV my whole life and have traveled the globe and I'll always return home to WV. I think there is no greater place. Maybe you just aren't happy in Fairmont but where I live, I always have things to do...parks, shopping, concerts, dining, etc. (and I live in a small town of 8,000 people!) Also, the complaints about summer..really? I'm grateful we live in a place that can enjoy all 4 seasons. I agree that WV is beautiful and that the people are friendly but I disagree with your negativity toward everything and everyone else. I advise people to visit WV themselves so they can gain their own opinion. Thanks.

re: Avoid West Virginia ! - 10/25/2014 -
1/7/2015The person who wrote this is delusional as the "facts" they present are untrue opinions. To Kathryn who wrote this, I'm sorry Alexandria is not nearly as nice as living in WV. I've been to Alexandria and trust me, your city has problems.
I have lived in WV for 34 years, have a college degree, a good salary job and after traveling the world, would never call any place home except for WV. WV is used to getting a bad rap from people like this author but I advise you, don't believe her words until you visit yourself. The mention of gangs makes me laugh...I have never seen or heard of a gang in WV in all of my life. I live in a downtown area and feel completely safe leaving my house and car doors unlocked. This state is full of great friendly people, arts, culture, class, and beauty. I'm sorry Kathryn from Alexandria, but you're way off and I'm sorry you're so unhappy in your own life you have to try to take it out on your neighboring state. Best of luck to you.
