where's a good place to relocate if you're in tech ?

I was also going to post Austin. Denver is growing too, but the prices are skyrocketing.

Personally, if I were open to relocation, I would try to find the job first and then relocate. You have to be careful in doing this since many employers will see your resume and throw it out if you aren't living in their area. Not that you want to hide the address, but don't make it promenent. And where you do include your address, write something like "In process of relocation to X city." Then, you fill in the name of the city where you're applying.

The reason that you do this is because many employers won't consider someone who wants to relocate because they think you'll ask for relocation expenses. So, if you DO want to request relocation $$$$, my strategy is not the right one. If you're just looking to move for a job and willing to pay for the move, you need to make it look like you're already headed there.

I've done this before so can confirm that it works.
