SLC. It's great weather, pretty mild although it can get hot in the summer but it's a dry heat so not that overwhelming. COL is v reasonable and you could easily get a place that's in a great neighborhood but close commute to the airport. Excellent outdoor activities and fitness opps. I literally rock/ice climb, mountain and road bike after work when I'm remote with ease. Food scene is good and getting better. Only downside is weird liquor laws but pretty easy to get used to.
SLC is a fun city, but the weather is extreme. Both summer and winter can kill you.
Charlotte is awesome and has great weather compared to the Northeast (too cold) and south (too humid). Also has a major airline hub. West coast is awesome but absolutely miserable for travel. Anything west of Chicago is a hard trip considering most clients are east of Chicago. Seems like west coast companies are a bit newer and have less technical debt and more inclined to do things on their own. Not sure if this is true for other consulting companies but many of our clients are not in the West.
I second EY5 on the diversity thing. The minorities here are almost all in the service industry, and there are very few young black professionals in/around uptown. I still love it here, but it's notable when I see the one other black person at a brewery or whatever the weekend activity may be. So while the demographics say it's diverse, the city is very segregated and the diversity doesn't seem to carry through socioeconomically.
Long Beach, CA
Minneapolis/St. Paul has all of those things
Yay frostbite!!! No wonder it’s hard to recruit .
Been all over as I am sure you have. I love Portland, Oregon for the requirements you put forth. The climate is pretty even and you have easy access to the entire west coast. The city itself is beautiful, with lots going on. The downside is that it does rain a fair bit.
Considering moving from NYC to San Diego. Worth the hassle of moving coasts? Big COL difference? Paying $1900 per person for a 2BR in LES right now.
Boulder
Miami
Fort Worth
Forgot to ask, to put your reasoning behind your answer, if there is anything specific aside from the points I listed out
Orlando!!!!
I would move to Tampa over Orlando any day
Orlando 👌🏻
Dallas
Because it’s not Fort Worth?
If good weather means brutal winters but lovely summers than I would recommend western Massachusetts
Anchorage
Houston.... if it weren’t for the weather
