With extended family commitments sounds like moving isn’t an option. Also given the uncertain times there is something to be said for being in a place, even if it is less than ideal, where you have family friends and other connections. You wouldn’t want to be the new face in town with no support circle if things suddenly fell apart.
I grew up mostly living in one place. But in my mid 20s and 30s I did a lot of travel and seasonal work around the country. I can’t count how many times I moved in that period. It’s not so hard if you don’t mind a little uncertainty and have a job that connects you with a lot of interesting people in your new place. Though now I have settled in a new location and being away from extended family can be difficult at times.
