No one's saying what's right or wrong, just making sure OP knows what he's in for, and giving our own opinions.
Again, it all comes down to priorities and values.
OP seems very career-driven and is willing to relocate for the future of his career. I admire that, because that's something I simply couldn't do. Much respect.
To expand a bit on my earlier post, I was actually looking to relocate down to California and take a pay cut. But that makes sense for me, because my priorities are music scenes and casual dating, neither of which Fort Mac has much of.
If OP doesn't have much of an interest in anything location-specific, then it just comes down to a family/friends thing.
Fort Mac has everything else we have here, basically. Pools, bars, gyms, theatres, etc.
BUT the 9 males to 1 female ratio is not exaggerated. Seriously. The four friends I have that are working up there right now tell some pretty interesting stories of the lengths people go to for thrills.
