This issue is so much less important than other matters - and heavily context dependent. But I find the ability for two reasonable and diametrically opposing opinions interesting. I just moved to SF from Boston. I think more people understand startups in the Valley, making hiring with equity displacing cash more of an option. I also think my startup's success will heavily depend on distribution and business development deals. That makes moving to a concentrated area more important.
