#2 Best Places to Live in Kanawha County
Charleston
Nearby Resident: Charleston WV has many quaint and unique businesses. One can walk down a brick paved street and see a bakery, law offices, restaurants, book stores, etc. with outside seating for when the weather permits. It's location in a valley, leaves the surroundings of trees, rivers, and railroads. Small hollows that one would think were uninhabited frequent the area and have many colorful individuals living in them.
Charleston could do better by having an updated mall with the usually expected businesses. It's one mall reveals many empty store fronts related to businesses that have closed.
Overall, Charleston is above average in nearby attractions. There are ski resorts, white water rafting excursions, bicycling on closed railroad tracks, the famous Greenbrier resort with all of its adventures, to name a few. A few days in Charleston could leave one feeling that they had been on a true vacation, or one day could become quite an adventure itself.
