Twenty markets. Eight jurisdictions. One clearer career map.

State, city, precinct and nearby-market relationships replace a flat list of capitals.
Each guide explains anchor sectors, employer types, local role language and search strategy.
Advantages sit beside commute, travel, vacancy-volume and role-scope challenges.
