[quote=Anonymous]op, i have a phd and am from the mid-west also, with no family here. i say, stay there if you like it otherwise! if you have a phd, keep working the "local fed" jobs, state jobs, and university ones too. it'll happen eventually! :) feds in areas other than dc/nyc/chicago/la/sanfran have so much better lifestyle than feds in these areas (fed pay is locality adjusted, but not adjusted enough to make much difference if you live in these high-cost cities). if you move here, you just won't believe how much time gets sucked up in commuting and/or how much money gets sucked up from high cost of rent/home values, camps/sitters, and car insurance etc. . good luck! we'll come visit! :)[/quote]
