Try China since that is where a lot of companies are moving to....J/K! ...Really though, you just have to look around to see what's available. Not many major companies are hiring here...except for mine...and we just hired 30 last Friday. It depends on your work history, what you are qualified to do, and are willing to do, then you just look to see what's out there that fits you.  |

I'm in Florida and there is a lot of work here. But you're right, the cost of living is high in some places. In other places it is moderate, but still in the upper end of the scale. NY is even more expensive. Noirthern states I think are good places to live.  |

They say that once in Texas; always in Texas. ;-) Seriously though, the cost of living is a lot lower here than a lot of places and the Dallas, Austin, and Houston areas are always hiring for graphic designers.  |

I suggest using the web to search - go to monster or careerbuilder and search for the specific job. I am sure you can find something - especially if you are open-minded to relocation. Good luck!  |

you have to remember though that where the cost of living is high, in most cases the wages match... but... at the same time, there are also places where cost of living far outweighs that of wages...  |

I don't know about web or graphic design, but workers are needed in almost every sector in Hawaii, but stay away from Ouahu if you value your sanity.  |

... and every one will tell you that it's really expensive to live there. From the research we've been doing over the last year or so, it very much depends which island you choose to live on. The Big Island (Hawaii) is comparable on property and real estate pricing to where we live now, and in many cases much more inexpensive. Again, stay away from Ouahu, but this time for affordability  |

outside of geographic location, you might consider webmarketing. I was just reading that this field is hot, hot, hot. They can't find enough people to fill jobs.  |

The only one I can be sure about is New York, but I know what ya mean about the cost. In any case, I'd look into it, because who knows? =-] Much love and peace - Hayley (HMC)  |

I've been sending my resumes to some employers in NYC...I am going to try and see if I can get a job first before moving there...I haven't had much luck doing that, but I can't afford to move there without a job. Thanks for the advice! |
