The US labour market has a reputation for willing cross-continental relocation, and if a story on Medscape is to be believed (http://www.medscape.com/PFNPublishing/PhysiciansFinancialNews/1999/v17.n11/pfn1711.01.03.html) physicians are increasingly relocating to small towns. There are few hard data and the cynic may suspect that the story has been commercially driven by the relocation management company it links to at the foot of the page.
