I work for the federal government and there are job opportunities in every city and town in the country, although the most jobs are in the bigger cities like DC. I'm currently in Florida and looking for a change.
I'm originally from new york city and can handle the cold but don't care for winters any more brutal than that. So that eliminates much of the upper midwest and parts of the northeast and west. I'm young and single and would like a place with lots of other young professional singles so I can date and find a wife to settle down with and have a family.
DC is the obvious choice but I'd like more options to consider.
Texas has lately had one of the most robust economies in the country, but the only Texas market to gain jobs this year is McAllen, in deep South Texas near the border. Since you're already in Florida, you'd probably be well-equipped to cope with the hot climate there.
DC is expected to have the most job growth of any major metro in the country, because of the increase in government jobs. I don't want to see this thread go in a political direction, so I will make my next point this way... Even if your political views are perfectly in sync with the current administration's, you'll need to have a high tolerance for bureaucracy to work in a Federal government job.

Maybe consider something more middle ground geographically. Some decent sized cities with plenty going on, somewhat healthy economies, younger populations and moderate climates would include Atlanta, Nashville, Raleigh-Durham and Richmond.
logybogy - You probably are aware of this, but Atlanta is a huge Federal job center. Cost of living is lower than Florida and the NE, with four true seasons. Every single Federal agency with the exception of NASA has their Southeast HQ's here, plus the actual HQ's of the CDC.Good luck!
It's a city for young professionals working in Manhattan. So your looking at very high cost of living... apartments to rent there are well above $1400-$1600/mo for a one bedroom apartment. But you have to consider it's location... It is right next to the Lincoln tunnel, with midtown Manhattan an extremely short distance away.
Hoboken also has more bars per square miles than any other city in the nation... So it being the best place for young singles, and having the most bars per square mile.. I think you'd be good here
