My partner and I (mid 20s) are SWEs in finance in nyc. Been working out west during covid; loved the lifestyle and access to nature. With RTO/hybrid coming up, we need to move back to NYC and the thought makes me depressed (not enough accessible outdoor activities). While NYC is fun, it's not where we want to end up, and every year spent there is a year we don't get to live the life we want.
Sadly, I doubt we can personally make even close our current tc outside of NY. Definitely going to stay in NYC until end of year, but still debating whether to move or stay past that point. Maybe can stay a few years and try going 100% remote after we're senior enough.
Should we grind it out a few more years, or just move out west now? Though not sure where I'd work out west either, nothing work-related really interests me anymore lol

combined tc: 1.3m

Personally, I love hiking, camping, biking, but I'd love to move to east coast if I get a chance, there are tons of options to do these things here.
I hope you get the opportunity to move back east!
I love NYC so am biased. It’s really fun here again, maybe give it a try for a year and see how it is. Since you’re in your mid 20s im assuming you have 2-5 YOE. You won’t get that TC in big tech out west
