I'm outside Philly as well (western suburbs). There are plenty of opportunities. I wouldn't say the pay is as good as other places. When you factor in the cost of living, while certainly less than the bay area, it can be higher than midwest. Also, I've run into very few remote possibilities around here, maybe because it's mostly corporate gigs.
