Virginia or West Virginia. I would choose West Virginia simply for location, security and for the most part people just leave you alone there. Lots of great people there and some crazies but guess you get that anywhere. I'm sure its pretty safe since everyone and their grandmas have shotguns so pretty sure you wont see ISIS there anytime soon. LOL. Great for gardens and homesteads. Cheap living and the hunting is abundant. Not to mention the mountain scenery is absolutely wonderful.
