45 minutes to NYC, 2 hours to DC, two of the biggest talent pools in the country, in a city of 2 million that has been making significant steps forward in the last 10 years.
It is cheap, offers all the urban amenities one could desire, it's close to the beach, I would absolutely move back if I got a good job offer.
