Looking to move with family ( 2 kids under 4) to a LCOL/MCOL with decent weather. Me and wife both have 100% remote job. Narrowed down to:

1. Las Vegas: proximity to Bay Area, LCOL, outdoor activities but concerned on schooling and negative influence of the strip

2. DFW: No outdoor activities but good job opportunities and schooling

3. Portland(OR): High MCOL, not diverse but decent schools, outdoor activities and close to Seattle for job opportunities

Recommendations? Anything I am missing?

I thought I was dead set on getting a remote job but discovering those are hard to come by. I found something I like but would have to be in office once a week and will be 3-4 days eventually. If the pay is a 15% bump plus 15% bonus, plus carry after a year (it’s a VC) would I be stupid to not take it just because of the in office requirement? I’ve really become accustomed to remote life and don’t want to go back in person, but the money is making me wonder if I’m being stupid with that thinking

I am planning to move to NYC soon. Just got a new (remote) job with really solid total comp and I’m young and single and think the lifestyle there will be great for me for a few years. However, I can’t help but consider that I will prob save an extra ~$35k a year if I live where my family is located where there’s no income tax and where I’ll have much lower expenses. Is saving an additional 35k worth missing out on having a great mid-20s experience in nyc?
