Found this on Mashable...  I'd prefer to work in high tech manufacturing, my preferred area.  But, I'll write for anyone!  This chart is geared more towards the hard core programmers, not the English majors who happened to grow up and start their careers in Seattle, like me, and who, inevitably because of the time and place, landed in that industry off and on over the years.  And it looks like moving north, south, or east from Oregon would be a good idea for landing one of these types of jobs.
