[quote=Anonymous]OP here. It is a legitimate concern. Yes, my previous move was due to job change too. At that time, my wife stayed at home and I did not have other choice but moving because I need more money to support my entire family.  Right now, we are financially better off since my wife works too(even my income is the main income source) and we could still do relatively well in DMV area with out current income.  My area is a niche market and Boston has the best job market for my area. I think I will just look for new job in Boston if the new job does not work for long term

[quote=Anonymous]Were the previous two moves for new jobs as well?  Do you change jobs frequently?

I'm thinking what if you get to Boston and find out this job isn't all you thought it was, and a year or two down the line you want to change jobs again.  Might not be working out where you are, might be for yet more money, who knows.  Do you then move your family again and now the kids are going into 8th and 10th grade?

I actually know someone who did this, moved his family from the DMV to Boston for his amazing job opportunity.  Two years later they were moving back to the DMV.  So while moving when the kids are starting MS and HS is probably the "best" time at this age, I'd want to be as sure as I could be this wouldn't be happening again anytime soon.[/quote][/quote]
