I feel so much better now and able to accept the pros and cons of living anywhere. What's so bad about that?
When I try to pick a place on my own, I end up overanalyzing the pros and cons way too much. And then after I move there, I wonder if I made the right or wrong decision, and blame myself constantly. So now, I just pick places with the best job opportunities, given that I can survive financially as a renter at least, and save money for retirement, etc. What's so bad about that?

I'd look in Nashville and Atlanta. 2 good markets-lots of corps at either hq or divisional hq level = lots of tax accounting spots, with salary levels relative to COL at minimum on par with most of your employment history.
NYC, like Chicago, is tough to break into-as it attracts a very large candidate pool, which means many exceed the requirements with solid, stable work histories. That makes the quantity of roles deceptive on the surface.
The Southeast quite often has fewer candidates than they need due to what is often too hyper a level of economic growth.
