Good place to start as an agent
Would WV be a good place to start out as an agent?
And in order to become a successful agent/investor are bigger cities good for that?

A good place to start is where you are comfortable and knowledgeable with the area. Being a broker is hugely about making connections, offering your services and utilizing WHO and WHAT you know. This of course goes on different scales for different types of brokers.. I say start in a market you see yourself living and growing in. Its seems easier to start with who you already know, that to pick a place on a map and restart. Just my .02.
