Oh man, I'm going through a real mental tug-of-war with myself right now about a potential move. In my late 30s, married, newborn. I have an incredible job right now in almost every way. But we live in an area that neither of us love, right at the time we are finally thinking about actually putting down roots (I've moved a lot in the last 15 years).
I have an opportunity to move "back home" where my family and my lifelong friends are. The job would be good enough, though certainly not as great as my current one. Wife works remotely so it doesn't matter for her. That's a major bonus as I make this consideration.
This is a tough one, moving for personal/family desires vs. a better work environment. I'd actually be downgrading my work life. And we're not unhappy where we live, just not thriving and it isn't long term for us.
