Job has up to 80% travel PwC
How is typically life for these positions requiring travel? This is for a SWE position.
Currently work with clients is remote as stated by the recruiter. If work is currently feasible through virtual means, will there be flexibility to choose to travel for this position?
I have an offer with PWC and have a family. I would prefer to be with my family.

It’s not ridiculous to value stability. You can build a career in more than one place but regret can be harder to shake than fear. Do the research, visit if you can, and don’t rush the choice.
Assuming you interviewed for the role before getting the offer, you must have some interest in the new city. Perhaps you should do some research and give it some thought. But I would be skeptical about going to a new city like that, unless the job is somehow phenomenally attractive.
It depends on your situation- have you been thinking about moving, are you enjoying your work at the moment, do you currently have a partner to think about also?
No, it’s not ridiculous. You obviously just need to weigh this decision against your long term life and career goals. Does taking a better paying position now allow you to come back and have even more stability in the future. If it were me, the only thing that would stop me from jumping at the opportunity is if I were married and/or had children. Obviously a move like that would have bigger ramifications. But if you’re riding solo go ahead and chalk up one of those “best or worst decision life moments”.
go for it, but maybe have a back up plan if things don't work out. producers can make top dollar :)
Not ridiculous at all, comfort and stability are worth a lot, especially if you’ve built a life you enjoy. That said, if the offer truly excites you, it might be worth exploring, even short-term. Maybe visit the city first, see how it feels?
Leap
If I need the money, in move.
See this city first. Learn as much as you can about it compared to where you are. Research the company (make sure they're solid, ethical and trustworthy) and talk to anyone who has some firsthand knowledge with it (ideally family, friends, business contacts and so forth). Make sure the money will take you decently there and that you're making upward movement from where you are now. If you have family members to consider, talk to them and see what they say.
I'd say leap but make it an informed leap and don't forget about your current network, who may even help you forge contacts in the new city. You only live once.
