Sup /trv/ never made a thread like this before

Been living in Hawaii for a few years ready to move somewhere livable. I've traveled all over Asia and West coast due to bidding on cheap flights/standby tickets. Ready to settle down and work some easy 9-5 job or bartend out there or something after years of scamming tourists. Are houses actually this fucking cheap?

Deadass set on WV because I've seen snow before and fucking love it
>>
yes, WV is cheap
hope you like having zero amenities around you and needing to drive 1+ hour each day to get stuff like food and whatnot
>>
>>2837295
I just looked at charleson which is where the houses I am looking at are. I can buy 100k house cash up front since the guilt tripping of tourists works so good. It looks like at most I have a 30 minute drive to walmart which is better than Honolulu where we have to sit in traffic for 30 minutes then pay for parking unless we get it validated. I just want to know if it's like those scam housing market like detriot or something. Seriously for that cheap why not? I could retire in peace

No high paying jobs. Only 75% White.
>>
>>2837354
lol if I pay for the house in full it looks like taxes might be 300 or so a year. Why woud I care about a high paying job when I've fucked more women than most people here? I just wanna retire. Guess this was the wrong board lol I thought most people here lived all over

charleston is niggers, don't do it
the higher the elevation the prettier it is for the most part
but there's no normal big cities, the grocery stores are limited, you have to make your own fun etc.
and, as stated, you have a pretty far drive to get stuff you need like medical care, and supplies have to be mailed to you

pic related has paper thin walls that will cost a lot to heat in winter
and one bath for two floors sucks

living all on one floor is the biggest luxury imho

>snow in West Virginia
Many years all you get is gray above and brown below with cold rain. Maybe in February you might get some snow. Everyone around you is fat and ugly and doesn't like smartass richfags popping into town one day and buying up a house. They might have a pack of hound dogs that bark endlessly day and night. The only thing worse, the owners constantly yelling at them to "shut the hell up!"

No I'd rather be sleeping at treetop level on the third floor

I hate defending the Virginia's but...
>charleston is niggers, don't do it
LMAO what? It's amongst one of the whitest places in the USA unless you're counting the gated community in New Hampshire.
>and, as stated, you have a pretty far drive to get stuff you need like medical care, and supplies have to be mailed to you
I googled this just for fun,

Walmart is 9 minutes driving
Foodmart and Dollar General less ~5 on a bike
Biggest hospital in the area is 10-12 minus if speeding 15-19 in a car

>but there's no normal big cities, the grocery stores are limited, you have to make your own fun etc.
I nearly give up with this place like I doubt 99% of US anons who post on this board go anywhere outside Trader Joes, Aldi, Target, or whatever Kroger/HEB similar exists. Yeah walmart isn't the most fun place to shop but who cares, it's a once a month to and from if you know how to buy in bulk. For "muh big cities" great but it's a more closer community, so long as you contribute smaller communities will be fine. Just don't come in going SO UHH WHERE CAN I SEE THE LOCAL LOUVRE?!?! WHAT YOU MEAN THIS TOWNS OLDEST BUILDING IS JUST 150 YEARS OLD AND A CHURCH DID YOU KNOW IN EUROPE THEY...

As for the make your own fun, that goes for anywhere unless you're "that friend" we all have who has to tag along and annoy the fuck out of the group because they are NPC about any socializing, hobbies, or anything not playing gacha. Maybe you need to get out of the hussle n' bustle of the big cities and focus on building character.

>pic related has paper thin walls that will cost a lot to heat in winter
Built 1945? Nah that shit is thick lumber in supports and insulation, probably wouldn't hurt to redo it.
>>
>>2837290
>built in 1945


Houses like that are a money sink with repairs and upkeep even if you do it yourself. I guarantee you the electrical and plumbing hasn’t been updated since it was built.

Charleston is 17% black. It used to be 40% but they just got pushed out a little.
>>
>>2838346
Sure Charleston SC,
https://censusreporter.org/profiles/31000US16620-charleston-wv-metro-area/
Try WV for once. That's the metro
>>
>>2837290
How is that only 976 square feet? It's like 10 stories
>>
>>2838764
9 out of 10 chance the lister went and saw the house was about 25x25ft, then doubled it for 2 stories minus the additional outdoor stairwell.
>>
I think the main compelling reason to avoid WV is the health care situation. Health care is fucked up enough in "good" parts of the US. If you've ever experienced a hospital that the parent company deems "for poor people" you'll know. WV ranks in the bottom 5 by access to primary care, preventable deaths per 100k, population vax rates, or pretty much any other health-adjacent topic you may or may not care about

If you're in your 20s and no issues, then that's one thing, but if you're retiring, and plan on living to an old age, you probably want to pick somewhere in the top 10 so you don't end up getting claimed by the reaper before you have a chance to enjoy the indolent lifestyle. Unfortunately, most of those are wealthier and more expensive states, so your ultra cheap house scheme may not be viable. Free market strikes again

I think a lot of these posts by random obnoxious twits like OP are LARPs, people who enjoy making up bullshit and spinning it and eating up any hostility they may provoke

Do you guys ever visit West Virginia?
