There has never been a better time to come home to West Virginia.
West Virginia powers the nation with our vast energy resources. We host a growing aerospace industry, an emerging automotive sector and innovative chemical and polymer companies. West Virginia also is expanding into new sectors such as biometrics, research and business services.
We are developing a welcoming business climate. The privatization of Workers’ Compensation has saved businesses $150 million. Corporate Net Income and Business Franchise taxes have been reduced. In 2007, the unemployment rate was the lowest in the state’s history.
You may already know of the beauty of the Mountain State. Main Street communities have maintained their distinctive personalities, making them small town gems. We enjoy natural wonders preserved in more than 200,000 acres in state parks and forests with 800 miles of hiking trails and 5,000
acres of fishing waters. It’s no wonder tourism attracts 11 million visitors each year, generating more than $3 billion in economic activity.
