It is one of the few places in America unaffected by the recession. Very inexpensive real estate you can pay cash & never have another mortgage. But everyone needs (must have) a Riding Lawn Mower WITH A GRASS CATCHER, a Brush Hog & Weed Eater. These locals don't know the first thing about cleaning up their mess after mowing. Sure miss my California Mexicans & Orientals beautiful maintenance of our properties. Hundred, WV: the oldest INTACT village in West Virginia. Village Architecture is similiar to what the English built in Malaysia & Singapore when the English went there in the 1800's. Life just goes on.
