      I've had the opposite experience and have done better at organizations with no internal contacts.

      Well, depending on how things go tomorrow, I may be headed down that road.

      I know about quite a few openings in the Orlando area that are actively seeking employees. It may not be ideal for you, but lower cost of living and no state income tax.

      But then you'd have to live in Florida...

      Never heard that one before 😉

      I mean there's a reason people say it...

      Yet our population keeps growing from the rest of the country...

      You mean rate of change? California has you beat. Even Texas I believe is growing faster then Florida is.

      What I meant was that most of our population is from out of state, but the state is doing well in growth.

        Utah is top.

        That's surprising to me. I figured Colorado would be #1.

          I guess that's good? Lots of living dead down there though.

              Tampa has a lot, actually. I hate Florida and Tampa more than pretty much anywhere else in it, but it's a decently hot place (no pun intended) for IT work. One of the larger US markets.

                  @coliver Utah is Colorado adjacent. Plus it seems like Utah is big and empty enough that most people there could kinda do whatever and get away with it.

                    Yes, but it doesn't have the draw of Colorado, if you know what I mean.

                      @scottalanmiller I know, Colorado having only a few Mormons is a big draw...

                            I just moved to Utah back in October of last year. Tech has absolutely exploded here. Aside from housing costs in and around SLC, the cost of living has stayed relatively low too.

                                      Only strange law in GA that I'm aware of is that a beer joint can't be closer than 100 yards to a church property or something like that (but that may just be a city ordinance)...

                                        @dafyre 3 tiered distribution (dirty from top to bottom, lots of folks taking a slice on the way), the fact that a regular store can't apply for a liquor license, 12:30pm before you can buy on Sundays (screw you, Saturday night 3rd shift workers), plus tons of stupid local ordinance stuff that's even stricter. Not to mention the ridiculous restrictions on brewery and distillery tours, and the fact that those places can't sell you their product directly (state liquor board has to get a piece, dirty crooked bastards). It's no surprise that GA is always ranked 47th or worse out of 50 in almost every conceivable category.
