4 months agoLots of Western PA and most of WV are like this. Absolutely gorgeous wilderness areas and amazing outdoor activities but the towns are really depressing.
Summersville, WV is one of my favorite places to visit but I’d never live there. Fayetteville is awesome and the new National Park is helping bring money. It’s funny to me the locals are upset that it is bringing in money but it was kind of depressing before. There needs to be some happy medium so the locals benefit but they need to stop fighting progress.
I understand your dislike of added sugar though I think it does add some complexity to certain foods. Just FYI, if you ever are in an area and see a food made ‘Amish Style’ it mostly means they added sugar and sometimes other seasonings.
