Money Influences Where Tech Pros

IT pros are more likely to choose cities with affordable housing than slick amenities, according to new data from CompTIA. In fact, tech pros make a lot of economic considerations when they’re thinking of relocating, according to the Tech on the Move report.

“We asked IT pros to rank the factors they consider related to where they want to live and work, and over and over, affordability kept coming out on top,” said Amy Carrado, research lead on the study and senior director of research and market intelligence at CompTIA.

IT pros ranked overall low cost of living and affordable housing as their top priorities when asked about a multitude of factors, like whether it’s a smart city or a tech hub or startup friendly.

“These more indirect factors, like cities that use smart technology or are business friendly, also influence what matters to tech pros most, and those aspects can end up bringing other positives to their IT pro careers,” Carrado said.

Tech pros are most willing to move to places where they can stake their futures – especially those who have less than a bachelor’s degree. Using data from the Tech on the Move report, here are five ways affordability plays into the reasons tech pros choose where they live and work.
