Do you have kids? Often times this is the differentiating factor. Lot's of moves between expensive cities for raising children seems like a challenge.

Awesome congratulations. We are trying right now for kids...

Has the prospect changed your outlook on where to live or the challenges / benefits thereof?

Thank you!

It hasn't changed too much. We have a house in the city, so the standing plan is to stick around for at least a few years. We both grew up in major cities (NYC, Chicago), so that preference isn't likely to change any time soon.

Things like quality of schools may change what neighborhood we prefer, but we still have some time before then. If it turns out home-schooling is the best way, then we'll go that route.
