[quote=Anonymous]One couple is moving to Baltimore - with one new job there and one existing job in DC that's what makes the most sense financially. I know several dual career feds living in Frederick because one job is in DC, one is elsewhere in or around MD, and if someone has to have a horrible commute they can at least save money. I definitely feel a bit stuck - my spouse and I both have very specialized careers with better job opportunities in DC than most places in the country (and most of the others are also major cities with high COL), but we'll never make enough for a million dollar house either. Right now saving enough for A house and being able to pay for child care for the kids we want are big enough goals. We would love to move to a smaller, cheaper city that still has culture and urban amenities but I'm not sure we will both be able to find jobs somewhere like that.[/quote]
