Do Investment Bankers have to work in New York on Wall Street?
I'm asking this question because I might want to be an Investment Banker one day but one thing is that I don't really want to work in New York cause It's too conjested so I was wondering are there other Investment Banking offices in other states?

No, because there are investment bankers all over the country
2 :
No, there aren't. One reason you get paid I-banker money is to put up with, and be able to afford, living in NY, London, Tokyo, etc.

Investment bankers are like you know what, they are all over the place, Most major cities have large banks that have investment banking departments as well as some of the major brokerage firms. You may luck out, and find some smaller banks (or B/Ds) in the burbs that do a considerable amount of Investment banking. These are catering to the growing areas that they're in, or they too wanted to get out of the rush of the big cities. You can start checking with some of the big name banks in your area or the area you may like. There is a reference book called the "Securities Dealers of North America" (the red book), the book list broker/dealers in geograhical areas, take a look at your local library, Good luck on your search, if you want bad enough you can do it.
