This is the best advice in this thread. I would also focus primarily on a frontend framework like React after you learn the basics (dont bother with vue), since many mid-sized companies are needing people with these skillsets. All sites are going to have a frontend component regardless, might as well master this early

I had to conduct studies for Code For America on the junior dev market, I would also checkout Seattle, Anaheim, San Diego, Washington DC, Atlanta, Houston among other places

In the meantime while you focus mostly on frontend you can slowly learn backend / compscience on a slow ongoing basis
