Would you take a first job in a *crappy* location if the job description was exactly what you want to be doing?

I'm at the point in my job search where I am willing to sacrifice location heavily in order to get my foot in the door in this field. I have been mainly applying to jobs in California but am now considering applying to jobs in rural parts of America. Is it reasonable to consider a job in Idaho for example just to get very good experience which will hopefully help you move back to where you want to be?
