The district is 90.8% White (Non-Hispanic) with small Black (3.2%) and Hispanic (1.4%) populations. Median household income is $54,402 — well below the national median of $78,538 — and the poverty rate is 18.8%, significantly above the national average. Only 22.1% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher, and 12.2% lack a high school diploma. Homeownership stands at 75%, median property value is $134,500, and the median age is 43.9. The district relies heavily on coal, natural gas, healthcare, and retail employment. It is overwhelmingly Republican (R+22 to R+43 per varying Cook PVI estimates) and voted for Trump by large margins. Miller has held the seat since 2019 (originally elected in WV-03; redistricted to WV-01 in 2022).
