Partners in Medical Search works closely with a professional relocation specialist and number of our clients also provide personalized assistance with relocation. However, for those candidates in the very early stages of exploring relocation, we recommend the following websites for information:
Your first step might be a Yahoo or Google search for the city and state; many cities and towns will operate a website about the area with community information, photographs and statistics as well as links to additional useful information.
Sites like city-data, epodunk, and cityrating will provide you with profiles of cities you may be considering. These sites provide information on population, demographics, median income and housing costs.
Homefair offers a number of relocation tools, including a cost of living based salary calculator, and a “Community Calculator” which ranks communities in your target area in terms of similarity to your current home town.
SchoolMatters is a great site for information on schools and school districts including size, performance on standardized tests, student to teacher ratio and spending per student.
