Philly sucks, may I remind everyone of the Phillies fan getting knocked in the head with the vodka bottle. They philly people are obnoxious and rude. They need to just stay there and never leave. Brotherly love my a$$ they go out of their way to hurt anyone and everyone. Then you've got Camdem right next door in NJ, the only place on earth where the cops have a worse deal then Mexico. That's right the police from Mexico look at that place and go s**t I wouldn't want to live there, there's too much violence.They may have some tech jobs but the inability of Philly to be kind decent people bring their rating down. No tech job is worth getting shot or mugged.
I had that mindset when I moved here from Alabama. The traffic is manageable if you live in the right places and you don't notice the crime if you pick a good place to live and aren't just dumb with your actions. I live in the heart of the city (Midtown) and love it!
@DCGUY12I didn't say they were not important. Im was just trying to point out that it was a pretty different thing to hte valley. Hey I usually work in R&D and don't really do the the business thing as it doesn't really interest me.
I live and work in IT in Atlanta and love it. The traffic isn't that bad if you know how to work with it. The cost of living is relatively low, and salaries for tech jobs is very good. There's also great culture and nightlife here.

I 2nd this. 100% of those graduating with a degree in CIS at my school had jobs within 6 months. I believe the mean salary was 58.5k.
