If this can help people form a better opinion, I am in the Binghamton area, which is pretty much devoid of engineering jobs aside from Lockheed and BAE (I am working for the former.) It is also the area I went to college in, and I just feel like I am back in college again, which is not a pleasant feeling. When I say I want to move home, I am referring to the area, not the house I grew up in. Though I would be moving back in with my parents, that does not really have a big impact on the way I live my life, and it would not be a necessarily permanent thing. With going to graduate school and working, however, it might just be easier to live at home and save money for the time being. Nothing has been concretely decided, but I am going to keep my job until the one year, then move on with or without a new job lined up. If I find something sooner, then I will move on sooner.
