I am asking $90,000 for my degree. But, I will have to move to either Texas or the West Coast to match that money.

Someone is giving you bad info, if you think you have to move to those places just to get 90k doing software development.

ETA: Nvm, I see that you just graduated.

That is a large decision.

Hopefully you "older and wiser" guys can help me out.

I'm an Alabama alumnus and retired. I was blessed to have owned and sold a medium sized business (around 70 employees), and retired in my early 50s. My advice to you is twofold. First, you need to know what your cost of living increase will be. People often reduce their quality of living with a move like you're contemplating. Lastly, There is no amount of money to offset a move from a place that you love to one that you just tolerate.
I know that it's now easy for me to say, but bottom line, follow your heart not your wallet.
