Hi there,
I was thinking about looking for a job at a US university with a reputed pharmacy department which leaves me mainly with Chicago, Columbus (Ohio) and Boston... Judging from what I've heared or seen in movies and alike (I never was in the states) and the climate, these towns don't tease me much. Also mentality-wise, extrapolating from the few american volks I've met I'd prefer the west coast or the south but one can't have everything...
Could anyone please tell me, how life is up/over there? Especially, how much I would have to earn to have a decent living with my eventually unemployed spouse (cause academic salaries at my current level are rather crappy). Would there be the possibility to rent a house? I hate apartment buildings and love gardening...
Appreciate any input!
