Go for it.
NYC and CA or the two most expensive place you could choose though. I hope you can either live cheaply somehow or pull in da coin, or have savings you can blow for initial living expenses.
That aside, if you have no prospects where you are - then freekin' move already. That is the spirit that created this country and keeps it strong. Make your own future. Be the ball danny..
When I did this, I researched potential jobs from the yellow pages and just blind/cold called the ones I wanted to work for. I set up interviews - just call and ask for a job and be very forward and positive and don't give up. I called this one small company 3 times and talked the owner into giving me an interview. I also called several realtors and set up appointments to look at apts. in my price range. All of this was done BEFORE I even went out there. Then, I went out there for a weekend, got a job and an apartment and then moved out there 3 weeks later. It was fairly painless and I did the same thing 2 years later when I moved somewhere else. I wasn't even single - married, no kids.
