Some opinions:
1. I would *never* change my job for $1 more. Even 10% more. Even 20%
more. I would start to think about the change at higher raise. It's not
theory, I refused several times to such offerings.
IMHO if you want to change the job for $1 more, then you don't like it.
It is worth so much to do what you *like* to. It cannot be expressed in
money, but the job is part of your life.
2. Recently I hired new guy for operator position. I received 40+ CV's.
Read them all. Rejected half (even more). The rest was invited to
interview with me. Almost 20 candidates. I needed *one*. I had a choice.
My goal was to choose a person best fitting our needs and demanding
reasonable (not least, absolutely!) money. One of the criteria was place
of living. Assuming other 'parameters' similar I prefer a person from
same town, than guy who need to travel everyday.
However, in the past I hired two guys from very remote locations, but I
knew they have to relocate. Now they live in Lodz.
So, IMHO it is probably matter of choice, not a 'blind rule respectation'.
My $0.02
