Born To Be Bad

Wheeling, West Virginia, sits in the northern panhandle of the state, about an hour from Pittsburgh and two hours from Columbus, Ohio. The name comes, according to the theory James reads out, from a Lanape phrase meaning place of the head or place of the skull. A severed head, belonging either to a Native American prisoner or to a white settler, was displayed on a pike at the confluence of Wheeling Creek and the Ohio River. The town peaked in population in 1930 and has declined for a hundred years since. Big houses went up on Wheeling Island while factory workers and miners lived in slums. An ordinance regulated personal cess pools and banned pipe connections between homes unless offensive smells were properly tracked. The Depression and the Second World War restructured industry, and afterwards there were far fewer jobs. At the time of the episode Wheeling had 27,142 people and a median age of about 43. The population was 90 per cent white, 5.9 per cent black, 0.9 per cent Asian and 1.1 per cent Hispanic. Forty-two per cent were religious, with Catholics the largest group, a legacy of the Italian and Polish miners. Unemployment was almost 7 per cent, nearly twice the national average. Median household income was $43,483, about $25,000 below the national average. The cost of living index was 76 against a national 100, the median home cost $131,400, and a two-bedroom rental averaged $980 a month. Property crime was about average, while violent crime was more than double the national average.
