deciding whether or not to relocate - OT

My husband is about to graduate from college in a month. We live in the midwest right now, near family and friends that we've known for years. We both work full time, have no kids yet, and can afford a nice home here and a vacation or two every year.

Now that he's graduating, he's talking about applying for jobs out on the west coast as there is a lot of opportunity for him out there. I'm open to it, but we're sort of weighing the pros and cons.

My question is, has anyone got any stories they'd like to share about relocating for work? I want him to have all the career opportunity he wants, but my concerns are about being able to afford a home, leaving my family and all our friends, and being able to afford to have kids out there.

Any transplants out there who have bounced between big expensive cities and smallish midwest towns? What are the pros and cons of each?
