[quote=Anonymous]We have planned to move ever since we were talking about kids. Our original plan was Raleigh, but has since been revised to Austin for family reasons (his is an hour away, mine is planning to relocate with us). Is it the BEST place for our jobs? No. Our job prospects are better here, but I am lucky to be able to move my current job with me and work from home. There ARE jobs in our fields, but they are not as plentiful. Is it the best way for us to have the kind of life we really want for our family, though? YES, YES, A BAZILLION TIMES YES. We feel like we will never get ahead here. The cost of housing and daycare is just way too high. It is 1/4 to 1/2 less in Austin. And we CAN actually buy a house in a fairly close-in downtown neighborhood on a budget of $300-400K. That gets me a TH here and not even a nice one in the far our burbs.[/quote]
