I feel like this thread is posted on a monthly basis. There's a reason that people put up with living in crowded, high COL places like NYC, Boston, DC, SF etc. -- there are lots of job opportunities and those jobs pay more than the same job in Cleveland (for most industries), if you can even find a job in your exact field in Cleveland. And there's the added plus of if you lose your job or hate your job and want/need to get another one, you'll find another one in aforementioned HCOL big city, whereas in CLE, you may likely have to pick up and move to another city which is no easy feat esp. if you need to sell a home in a rust belt/no growth market.

Now if you're in a field like medicine or teaching or IT, they may not apply to you so go where you please. But for the rest of us, living decisions go hand in hand with working decisions.[/quote]

Right, but then they bitch and moan and bitch and moan and bitch and moan and yearn for the good ol' days in Kalamazoo (now really gone; in reality everyone's a meth addict) where everyone is just so durn friendly.

(Now offense to Kalamazoo... just a stand in for wherever anybody came from...)[/quote]
