I'll bid $50 on a P2P loan for your move if you want to finance it instead of saving for it. Gotta have a job lined up first though before you move here.

Getting a city job is not easy unless you work in education or healthcare--which are the only two fields here that is growing like hotcakes. Overall, the job market is still good if you include the suburbs into the picture.
Hey, thanks for the offer EC

The problem is getting that job. I have more than enough saved up to make the move itself, but I want to have a good cushion so I can spend a little while finding a job once I get there. It seems that unless you are in those fields you mentioned, if you have an out of state address when seeking employment you will be looked over.
