Question

What are the best places to live for science and biotechnology?

Answer 1

The vast majority of biotech jobs are located in the Boston and San Francisco areas. Beyond that, there are a few other, smaller concentrations, like Research Triangle in North Carolina or the biotech corridor in Maryland, and a few individual companies scattered around randomly.



Of course, any decent-sized university will have some amount of biological research going on, and there are always medical labs associated with hospitals and the like.

Answer 2

It's hard to beat San Diego. Lots of biotech, lots of hi-tech industry, great university and good colleges, fantastic climate.

Answer 3

In a house. Preferably close to your job. Or (if you are a student) close to the University campus. But not so close that your work/academic life and social life become indistinguishable.

Answer 4

NJ has the most biotech and research labs in the US
