Fair enough, but that eliminates most of the country outside the NYC-DC corridor.

Yeah, I actually quite like Baltimore. Way more interesting than Tacoma.

I'd pick Seattle for the better natural setting and more interesting culture.
I wouldn’t describe either region as moderate cost


Haven’t voted yet. But you can’t just compare the burbs to a whole city

I wouldn't consider Seattle a place of moderate cost at all. High wages yes, but it's an expensive place to live. Not sure how NOVA compares as I'm unfamiliar with the area.
