These counties are sometimes also included into the region depending on whom is asked.

Preston County would not considered part of the region due to the fact that the county borders Maryland.

Wetzel County also would not be part of the region because not only does the county border Ohio, but also many West Virginians largely consider Wetzel County to be a part of the Northern Panhandle region, even though it does not lie within the actual "Panhandle." [1]
