So expand your demand market. You can work remotely, or simply travel to the clients. If they're paying you enough, no reason why you can't include travel costs, etc.
I can't really do travel. I work from home now and like it because of having a young daughter.
If I wanted to I could take contract work in Manchester and earn twice what I'm on now. But I don't want the 3 hour commute.
So you might say, "well that's your problem right there!" and I accept that. But I was thinking that I might be able to solve the problem I've specified without doing the obvious, "move to Manchester."
