Dutch Miller Automotive is a family-owned small business that has been in operation since 1961 . Chris Miller , president of Dutch Miller and West Virginia native , shares his thoughts on why the Mountain State is a great place to live and work .
“ West Virginia is a place where you are surrounded by hills and trees and rivers and streams ,” says Miller . “ You ’ re a 12-minute drive from everything you ’ ll ever want or need , and you are surrounded by people who treat you like family .”
“ Our data company tells us there is obviously a demographic shift out there ,” says Miller . “ But we have something people are looking for ; it really is like people are looking for Mayberry again . There ’ s something about walking down the street and knowing four out of the eight people you see personally . People are looking for that again .”
There is no better place to live and work than West Virginia . It is a place where you can find success in many ventures , including owning and operating a small business , much like Dutch Miller Automotive . The people are friendly , helpful and encourage one another . Living in West Virginia is like being in a classic television show and living in the good old days — only better .
“ It blows my mind how special a place my home state of West Virginia is . The people are wholesome and fantastic ,” says Miller .
Miller was born and raised in Huntington , so seeing the city embracing possibilities to thrive makes him proud . “ I see all the potential Huntington has to be even better ,” he says . “ I also see the positive steps being taken every day , not just by our local government but by private citizens that step up constantly to make our community a better , cleaner and more productive place to live . Sure , we have some uphill battles to climb like so many small towns do , but I sincerely believe the people of Huntington and the surrounding areas have the ideas , spirit and backbone to pull it off .”
The people of the Mountain State are what makes it home to Miller , and he can ’ t imagine living anywhere else . “ West Virginia is home to the kindest and most caring people on planet earth . That ’ s hands down the best part of this state ,” he says .
Come experience for yourself how great the Mountain State is . Miller is right , living here , you are close to everything you want or need . West Virginia truly is Almost Heaven .
