Question for people who have moved from High Cost of Living Areas to Low Cost Places
Hi everyone,
I am seriously considering moving from San Diego to South Carolina because all my extended family lives there and my immediate family is moving there at the end of the month. I want to be near my family and it's just a bonus that all my cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents live there too. I've looked at places for rent and they are so cheap compared to what I pay now, but I'm wondering if it's possible to get comparable pay at a job in the new place or not? It's a bit of a struggle for me here, I only make $14/hr at my job, but I work for a healthcare company and have free medical/dental insurance. But with my take home pay I'm pretty much paying rent, my utilities, and what I need to survive (food). Would it be difficult for me to move there and ask for the same rate of pay at a similar job since the cost of living is so much lower? Thanks for the input. Buck |
