Looking for an honest review before I transfer to tpd

I currently work for a local sheriffs office and am about an hour from Tampa. I’ve excelled at my current job for 5 plus years and have a legitimate shot at promotion but our sgts only start making 58k annually. I’d like to think tpd would be financially better for my family in the long run but idk if it justifies an hour drive and/or moving to a higher cost of living area. Just looking for honest opinions from current officers and those who might have transferred from other agencies. Thank you
