    There's a big difference in quality of life between working in Seattle and working in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

    And most of that has to do with the perspective of the job candidate.

    Equal money: cost of living is much lower in Hot Springs - live like a King, big fish in the small pond, or live like a plebe in a rundown apartment in Seattle.

    Does the big city, heroin capital of the country (Space Needle for G-d's sake) excite and appeal to you, or do you like to go hunting and fishing after work?

    If the candidate is coming from out of country, is it important to them to be able to visit the old country easily? Airport connections are much better in Seattle.
