Margaret Killjoy also lives in Appalachia.

What's going on in them thar hills that makes it so appealing to goth/punk transgirls?

People live there, therefore there will be trans people.

Also it's beautiful. I highly recommend the Great Smokey Mountains, Shenandoah National Park, and the New River Gorge.
