There are plenty of people in Seattle (and I'm sure most big cities) having a really tough time finding people to hire. In Seattle, I know of several companies looking for python devs.

As other people here are stating, you need to move.

Do you need to move, though? If programmers really are that scarce, is a plane ticket + hotel enough disincentive to interview a good candidate?
