Things may cost more there, but you make more money at the same jobs.

I dont think anyone said that since you are from WV that you dont know what goes on outside of your state. Maybe I missed something there, but what Munchkin said is true.
There is a higher cost of living in certain areas.
But those areas are also more urban which both can impact when someone gets married, plus on the whole more go to higher education as well.
In smaller communities and more rural areas, people do get married younger. I dont think there is anything wrong with this, its what they are use to and most are happy.
As far as regionally, I have had a lot more pressure even with going away to school to get married younger than some of my other friends. A lot of my friends are engaged/married already. My exboyfriend however, was from the philly area and he thought it was crazy to even think about marriage at that age.
