Should I move to take the job I want or stay where I am to take a job close to home?

After a year and a half of unemployment, I got two great jobs offers in one week. One requires me to move 3 hrs south to Portland OR but is at a university, the other allows me to stay in Seattle near friends and family, providing comfort and security during these challenging times. Jobs are similar in responsibility and pay. Do I move for the U job or stay local for people; the proverbial career vs people question.
