If you don't care what you're doing, San Diego would be a great choice, unless your family lives across the country (and flying to SD really sucks because there are no non-stops from the east coast so far as I can tell).
I can assure you (and I think you agree), I would not live in DC if I could find as interesting work as a lawyer in my preferred locales. Unfortunately, I've ended up in a legal area that's best practiced in DC.

That's the issue. I am in the sam e boat (and I am starting to wonder if perhaps we have worked together). So the issue is, how important to your life is work? I tend to be more French in that area in that I dont have enough greed to make work my life and when I am billing way high, i tend to be miserable. But I dont have the balls to throw it all away at the moment, not in this economy. Hopefully this attitude doesnt make me an old lady who regrets having spent her life somewhere she didnt want to be toiling away for someone else.
I do know that some Biglaw in SD is hiring though, in certain areas. And to answer your previous question, San Diego jumped on the tech sector bandwagon and has not apparently had the extensive setbacks SV has. Someone who practices there told me this so take it fwiw.
