As the state capital and the largest city in West Virginia, Charleston is a hub for business, culture, and tourism. The distinct four-season climate and lush surroundings stimulate the senses throughout the year. Thousands of acres of pristine natural beauty fill the mountains and valleys around the city, making it a perfect place to rent an apartment for folks who want easy access to the great outdoors while still enjoying the benefits of the city.
Education is strong in Charleston, with many top-ranked public schools and several collegiate branches in the area (including the University of Charleston and campuses for WVU, West Virginia State, and Marshall). West Virginia’s unique Appalachian culture is on display, with several attractions and events throughout the year celebrating the history and traditions of the region. The local arts scene also incorporates many events focused on classical music, dance, jazz, and wine.
