Change is good, but change is scary.  I get it.  But don't let that be a part of your decision.  Even though they may seem obvious, here are a few points to consider:

[LIST]
[*]Staying in the same field is easier, and as you say, can be financially rewarding.  Employers love experience
[*]Changing fields is easier (and doesn't look as confusing to an employer on a resume) when you are young

[*]Big cities (and 'known' employers/universities) are better for networking and finding that next position; smaller cities are the opposite

[*]Cost of living is lower in smaller cities; the opposite of big cities
[*]Loving what you do and doing what you love should be the first consideration, all other things equal
[*]Make sure your wife is totally on board with whatever decision you make
[*]In Syracuse, you'd never miss a game!  It shouldn't be your prime consideration, but it can factor in
[/LIST]
Best of luck in your decision.  Talk it out with whomever you trust.  Don't make a hasty decision if you don't have to.  Let me know if you want to chat.
