[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think if you have a pre-existing network there, it can be a great move. A good friend of mine spent 10 years grinding it out in Brooklyn. She moved back to Cleveland about 2 years ago and is loving it - fun art/music scene, cheap and interesting housing stock, as an RN she's making waaaaaaaaay above the median income instead of living paycheck-to-paycheck in NYC, etc.

It can be liberating to be a big fish in a small pond.[/quote]

Yeah but doesnt sound like OP is living paycheck to paycheck or dealing with career related issues.  Seems she wants to move to focus more on family and live a slower life, which she could do here.  [/quote]
Sometimes it's good to make a change, though. (Ann Arbor PP here.)

My DH was also offered a job at an institution close to DC. We could have stayed close-by, I could have kept my job, etc. we made the decision to move west and it was definitely the right decision for us. Because we have a school-aged child whose classmates have awesome parents, and DH's job makes for fast, intelligent, like-minded friends, we haven't had problems making friends. I'm very, very happy with where my career is, too. To each her/his own, but that's been our experience. We wouldn't have been as happy moving to an outer suburb of DC. [/quote]
