West Virginia
Most educated city: Morgantown
Pct. with at least bachelor degree: 31.7%
Pct. with at least high school diploma: 88.8%
Median household income: $41,924
West Virginia is the least educated state in the nation -- less than one in five adults in the state have at least a bachelor’s degree. Particularly poor education levels in some West Virginia areas drag down the state rate, while some areas have above national average levels of education. Nearly 32% of adults in Morgantown, the state’s most educated metro area, for example, have at least a bachelor’s degree. While Morgantown, like West Virginia as a whole, has a lower median income than the nation as a whole, the earnings of its college-educated adults still exhibit the difference in earnings a degree provides.
