Thanks all for the info!
I'm in an extremely cheap rural spot in Indiana (property taxes nearly non-existent) with no family ties to the state (wife is from Dallas though). Was driving 2+45 to ORD. I'd consider someday moving her back to Texas in exchange for a much shorter commute, but cost of living will probably be higher. Won't be anytime soon.
Never even considered NJ or PA. Very interesting.
Out of curiosity, does the Woodlands have golf cart paths everywhere like Peachtree City?
Is EWR or IAH more junior? Which has more intl flying? Are most newhires sent to both domicilies equally?
Thanks!-
KC
