^^^ This.

I know nothing about law school so all I can offer is the perspective of someone old and the Queen of Regrets. I'd strongly recommend leaving. Your current city isn't going to let either one of you reach your potential career-wise. Why settle? You're young and your life is full of promise. Putting down roots can wait. Trust me, you do not want to look back 15 or 20 years from now and wonder why, when you could have done anything, you let the opportunity pass you by. The only thing that seems to really be standing in your way is the cost of moving, a new place, and his law school. Yes, it adds up and it may not be easy for a while. But remember, a life lived without regrets is priceless.

Good luck!
