What cities are good for mobile developers beyond the Bay Area?
There seems to be a decent amount of roles for fullstack web developers, IT specialists, and enterprise desktop software engineers throughout the U.S. and much of the world. However, what cities are specifically good for mobile developers beyond the Bay?
You might have to define "good". There are plenty of jobs in cities all over the world. Some, like Jakarta, have a booming tech industry, but may not be as livable or high paying.
What are your goals? To sit on a million dollars? Or buy a house by the lake, send your kids to Harvard? Creative independence? I make a good sum off a $25k salary, but living quality is high enough that I'd probably turn down a $150k salary at the Bay.
All the big companies hire for mobile in the Seattle area. There’s some startups too, but nothing like the Bay Area.
While not specific to mobile, D.C. seems nice for developers if you are okay with working for a government contractor.
Anywhere with an internet connection is good if you get a remote job
you can easily live anywhere if you are a mobile developer and work remotely from any city even outside the states. however if you are looking to work in office Seattle, NYC, Portland, DC
