Alleghany County is extremely red, Covington has a large paper plant which has a nasty smell, and Clifton Forge has a massive coal train terminal and is the most depressing place I have ever been.

Richmond, Hampton Roads, and Charlottesville contribute as well, but basically if it’s not a city or the suburbs of one, it’s red as a sunburn.

Virginia still has cheap areas and is a blue state thanks to the DC area and Hampton Roads, but the cheap areas suck and don’t necessarily have broadband access or mobile coverage.

Virginia is roughly purple. The General Assembly is hung (one house majority Republican, the other majority Democratic), and the governor, lieutenant governor, and attorney general are all Republican.

The DC area is ridiculously expensive ($1 million or $2500/month is quite possible). I can’t speak to Hampton Roads.

The city of Richmond, most of Henrico County (not Varina), Charles City County, and part of Chesterfield County are blue. Charles City County is cheap but good luck getting a phone signal with certain carriers or getting internet access. Glen Allen, Short Pump, and the West End (all Henrico County) are all pretty expensive as well but less so than DC.

Now the Pi-Hole is my DHCP server.

For example extremely high water low salts can cause brain swelling and death.

And before that, you lose your balance, are vomiting and have diarrhea after you eat/drink something, and have seizures. Then your kidneys shut down.

The week in the hospital on IV fluids and dialysis recovering was not pleasant.
