To change a city = to move to it another city?

Question

Hello everyone!I just want to use an example to make my question clearer:a) I was fed up with living in the same place. I changed the city. I accepted a job offer in Paris, where I had wanted to live and work since I was 18.

Sorry! Somehow the second part of my message wasn't sent!

So the second part again! I would find the following version better:

b) I moved (house) to another city.

But is a) (changed the city) wrong or would it be an option that is in order?

"changed the city" is definitely wrong! "moved house" is also wrong. It's simply this:

I was fed up with living in the same place, so I moved. I accepted a job offer in Paris, where I had wanted to live and work since I was 18.
