[North America]
I actually hope to jaunt into a remote position, in 2019, and this specific question has tussled quite a bit in mind. I'd love to hear what other people are considering.
Seeing that I'm in NYC, I think there are a few cultural, political and culinary reasons to choose a city to transition few. Here are a few of my requirements:
-Strong local job economy if in the event I lose my current position (my job is not sought after enough for me to gain remote positions immediately)
-Cheap(er) real estate (this isn't hard considering I'm from NYC)
-Left/Democrat-leaning locale (the state doesn't have to be blue but where I live should have an unshamed democratic community)
-Some clustered seasonality (that removes FL, AZ, AL, and the northern state for their harsh winter)
My top cities I had in mind:
-Raleigh or Charlotte (I have some trepidations about what the Republican leadership did recently)
- Explosive growth which the city is not accustomed to/for
- Traffic will be a nightmare if the rate continues (almost 0 public transport)
- Good tech scene (Research Triangle) and quite cheap real-estate
- Might be suburban hell/boring
