Comment on Ask HN: Is moving to the Valley a good move?parent

Thanks so much for the input! Ya I am currently in Philadelphia and like it quite a lot. But I never even took the leap to go out West. My sister lives there and shares your sentiments. I appreciate it.

What I often do is take vacations to check out areas I want to live in. In the past I've been to SF, Miami, NYC, etc each for a week to scope out what the area is like. I'd recommend doing that if you can, especially since you work remote. Take a week or two and go there (could be vacation/PTO or just work during the weekdays) and see how it is for yourself before committing to moving anywhere fully. There were many cities I thought I'd like but I just didn't after going there, like Miami.

Great advice! Ya, in the end I am willing to make some sacrifices if it helps and we have some tentative plans. Cheers.
