California is probably the best place. More airplanes there than any other state in the US. More airplanes in California than in any other country in the world too.
More importantly, the weather is good so you can fly when you want to. If not, Arizona, Florida.
Job situation seems to be picking up a bit but still lots of pilots and lousy pay at the regionals.
Seems like 1000 TT and 100ME is the point that you become interesting to them.
Air inc is the best source for who is hiring and what experience the new hires have 9and how little they pay). They also run job fairs where you can meet recruiters.
