#westvirginia #virginia #compared

Two bordering Southeastern states in these United States that uh...used to be one state!

Overall, both states are definitely wonderful places. Virginia obviously has all the history and beauty. West Virginia clearly has the beauty, and might not look as good as Virginia based on this video, but... they’ll now pay you to move there. https://ascendwv.com/
