If you are feeling restless and dreaming about moving to an exciting new city, there’s a website you’ll want to hear about.

Makemymove.com will show all the cities around the country that will pay you to move if you are a digital worker. Since many non-essential workers became fully remote during the pandemic, your home location might not matter.

If you are a digital worker and ready for a change, open your imagination. Here are 10 cities that will pay you to move.

1. Tucson, Arizona – Up to $7,500

If you love the desert landscape, Tucson is a great place to live. Remote workers selected for the program will receive cash, benefits and moving assistance valued at over $7,500.

2. Morgantown, West Virginia – $20,000

With a population of about 137,000 people, make your move to the northeast U.S., where the cost of living is well below the national average. During your free time, try rock climbing or taking a walk through a forest trail.
