Boy I tell you I used to crack jokes about West Virginia, but the price of good quality homes here is amazing. It's not just lower prices on homes, property taxes in this state are also really low. Here's a good example. My parents home they built on Lake Erie cost them just under 1/2 million. Their home is beautiful, but down here that same house in a prime location would go for a lot less, between 250-300k. My parents property taxes are nearly $5,000 a year (YIKES!)

This home we bought not only had a great price and large lot, but my property taxes are $450.00 a year

I moved here in 1997. I had no idea that my life would be where I am today after moving here. Never expected to settle in this state. I'm glad I did too. Their are some ignorant people here, but hell that's everywhere.
