I’d agree with a meh place for family but they are for the most part so rural one would insane to worry about pollution overload. LA has more pollution than any place in WV lol. Per capita pollution is probably ridiculously high in WV but cumulative load? Not so much in most towns. Have you been to either one? I lived in KY for a while it’s not great but it’s not that bad. WV is pretty crappy for the most part though
Yeah I live in the South where I see population density as a double edged sword. Personally I see the value in open space, but simple trends in geopolitics and economics don't favor these communities in the next twenty or thirty years when I'll be working. Investing in a place like WV is a much bigger risk than the top places on that list except for perhaps Hawaii and CA (which I'm strongly biased against due to current tax concerns and future climate change concerns). In a sense choosing a state to live in is much like buying a home... For those that have never purchased a home, you don't just want to get the most house you can for your dollar, you need to consider community factors like schools too.
