Huntington is the second largest city in West Virginia, and can be found in the far western corner of this small state. The Ohio River separates the city from neighboring Ohio along the northern border. Like the state’s capital, Huntington is part of a moderately-sized metropolitan area with plenty of amenities and a rich architectural style. Also like Charleston, Huntington has struggled to retain residents in recent years, as the city is currently home to over 35,000 fewer residents than its all-time population high in 1950. Many people might blame the decaying state of the downtown area in the middle of the 20th century as rationale for the city’s decrease in size, though typical white flight to the suburbs might also be a contributing factor. Fortunately, more recent efforts have reinvigorated the city’s center, including the construction of the Pullman Square, an upscale retail center that opened in late 2004. The Ohio Riverfront has also seen increased attendance and renewed interest from locals and visitors.
Perhaps the most important part of Huntington is the presence of Marshall University, a public research university that dates back nearly 200 years. This well respected university has one of the country’s leading forensic science graduate programs, but is probably better known for its famous NCAA Division 1 football team. The Thundering Herd, the team’s name, suffered one of the greatest tragedies in sports when the majority of the 1970 football team was killed in a plane crash along many of its coaches. The school also contributes to the strong health care market in the city via the presence of the Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine. Considering the oft-reported ill-health of many Huntington residents, the presence of numerous hospitals within the city is a good thing.
