True. I did taxes in Texas for a while and noticed millionaires located outside of the big cities. But most of these are retired seniors. Or "consultants".

If you're looking to start a career, big cities are better than smaller towns in many ways although small cities can still offer great opportunities for growth and experience.

I've seen truckers, welders and even a few construction workers make 6 figures. And then I've seen actuaries and computer programmers make barely above poverty level.

So yeah, I know that high tech jobs aren't the only way to make a decent living.
