Many (or some) company owners would love to relocate to cheaper cities but they face the problem of the lack of talent. Trying to find a job in a city that is not a "technology hub" may not be a bad idea. Specialy if you value quality of life over gross salary.

I appreciate the words guys, I’m actually looking into that. If it comes down to it I may move back to Barbados where I’m originally from. Or give another city/town in the East coast a try. Thank you.

It doesn't always mean making less - often the drop in cost of living balances out. Ex a $300k home in my city is 1.5 million in Toronto. Yikes.
