    This town is really interesting. The downtown area feels like a ghost town with so many abandoned buildings, perfect for a night exploration. I also agree, it's great to see how much this town honors its veterans.

    Welch West Virginia is an interesting but mostly abandoned town.You passed Bramwell and it once had the most millionaires per capita in 1900 when coal was booming,alot of fine old homes there.Downtown Bluefield with a population of around 9,000 was once known as little Manhattan with the historic highrises there in it's day

    It looks like Welch is a thriving metropolis compared to the small West Virginia town I live in. The town I live in has less than 1,000 people.
