Any should work, I and friends have done it many times and see little difference between them. YMMV with any particular city. Sometimes one in SF will pay for moving expenses, help set you up in corporate apartment for a few months etc, sometimes not. Sometimes a company based in the midwest or Charlotte will or won't. It depends on the candidate. It depends on the company. It depends on the current hiring climate and position. It's up to you to decide if a place is worth it or not. Interview many places and see what your offers are. If something is a deal breaker, tell them and they will probably shell out for some moving expenses/bonus to lessen the blow of paying a premium for housing when you get there.
