Speaking from experience, they don't pay as well in Iowa as the coasts, but it is possible to find a job if you'll move to where they are. To generalize about the midwest, you have a lot of people who still spend their life at one company, and do respect the simpler work histories.
- jedberg 15y agoThey don't pay as well in Iowa, but then again, the cost of living is a lot less.
- mathattack 15y agoIndeed - it's a big tradeoff. It's probably 1/2 the cost of either coast, and you can send your kids to public schools without worrying about them getting mugged. But it speaks to the culture when cities brag about being, "Just 4 hours from Chicago, Minneapolis, Omaha and St. Louis" A definite trade-off.
