I post this becuase the North Central region of WV tends to align with the Psbgh region.

5 Markets Expected to Fare Best in 2010 - Yahoo! Real Estate

The five areas that Moody's foresees home prices performing best in 2010 are: Tacoma, Wash., (an increase of 2.44%); Memphis, Tenn., (up 0.99%); Pittsburgh (up 0.89%); Charleston, S.C. (up 0.18%); and Seattle (decline of 0.50%). (These five markets are culled from data on Moody's Economy.com and based on the largest 100 metro areas.)

Way to go!

The region's economy is actually alot more stable now than it was 20 + years ago. We didn't experience a boom and bust cycle like Florida or other fast growing Sunbelt areas.

I think everyone is trying to move to lower cost of living areas it's getting too ridiculous in some of the bigger cities. I would never live somewhere like NY or LA.
