Default OT Poll: If you were to relocate, where would you go? (m)

Seriously - I am highly considering the idea of moving to a new area and starting over. My wife and I are both engineers, so we'd like to move to a place that has lots of employment opportunities. Currently, in the Albany, NY area, there isn't much, it's basically a policitcal capital and there isn't a lot of technology going on in this city. Ideally, a rural area would be nice, low crime rates a must, and someplace that doesn't have planes dropping out of the skies. I've thought of places like Boulder or Denver, Co., but have never been out there. Any ideas? I want to try and create a list, and then I'm going to start researching those places for different aspects about them.

Thanks guys.

Default Denver? I would think more along the lines of Missoula MT, Cheyenne WY, or Idaho Falls ID.

Those are real rural areas. If pressed you could look in Boise or Billings. Roads are nice. ;-)

Default Vancouver, BC

Lots of Hi-Tech companies here who are looking for engineers. I don't know what sort of engineer you are but there are a lot of companies looking for people. (of course it is Canada so there are the usual positives and negatives about that.)

Default Central Maryland. Between Baltimore and DC....its a busy area in general, but

There are places like the Annapolis area, and parts between, that are rural and very nice. For DC, look for metro stations to ride into the city, I know there is one in Greenbelt and college Park, don't know any others off hand.

Also, consider outskirts of Charlotte, NC, and Raleigh-Durham, NC.

Default I'm in Boulder, and that's where I'd stay. It's an incredible town.

Drop me an email if you want any more information about it.
