I wouldn't move here without a job. I applied from out of state and had a couple phone interviews and flew down for 2 face to face interviews. It took me a couple months to get the interviews. I was also willing to start 3 weeks after being hired. I honestly don't think it would be any easier if you lived here since you don't know anyone. I found it much easier to change jobs once working and living here.
