You're the only one who can make this decision, but look at everything you said. Make a pros and cons list and see what you come up with.  How important is the decline in salary when compared to the added benefits you would get with the new company?  Look at your stress level where you're at and how you're reacting to things... would it improve with the new company, even at the lower salary?  What are the chances for advancement at the new company?  It might be that once you get there and get settled, that you'll have more opportunities for growth and/or advancement.  I strongly recommend writing out pros and cons for each position and seeing which one is more favorable to you.  Could you live on the lower salary, even with more costs involved with commuting?  If you can't, then unfortunately the answer is simple.  Run the numbers, the pros and cons, and let us know what you decide.  It's tough to be in your shoes...

Sympatheticallly,
