Location choice?

Hello all. I recently graduated from a t 30 but a non-target school and live in NYC with my family. While I have done some interviews, I don't have a job lined up yet. I lowkey want to leave NYC because I've grown up here my whole life and would like to live in a new city but financially I don't think this is the right choice as the rent I would pay per month would be very low compared to living elsewhere. Does anyone have any recommendations for what I should do?
