Holden is a coal camp near Logan, WV. Logan features the basic necessities, but not much more. Charleston, WV is an hour up Rt. 119 to find shopping and activities. Holden is in the Protestant Bible Belt, but there are probably at least one Catholic or Lutheran or Episcopalian church in Logan County. Like the rest of the southern WV coal fields, they are probably suffering from an epidemic of drug addiction, too - meth, oxycontin, lortabs, crack, etc. The economy of the area has been coal mining for 100 years.
