I've heard SF is a good place to be as well. The benefit of LA is you get the job market for LA and Orange County (secondary to tertiary market) if you don't mind driving.

"jpacai" As it is explained above, I'm curious what the biggest hubs for RE jobs are in the US.

Is it as simple as NY, LA, and Dallas?

I'd expand that to "any major city" really. DC, SF, Atlanta, Chicago, etc.

I think LinkedIn has a feature where it shows what percentage of employees work at which locations. I've seen it for some companies.

Ie. It shows: 50% Los Angeles area, 20% NYC, 30% Miami (or whatever the mix might be).
