If I could, I'd leave tomorrow, but, besides tech, there is another unique aspect of Bay Area: the Biotech scene.
My wife works in Biotech and the only other alternative for us would be the Boston area. But, after running some numbers pro/cons, the Bay Area wins.
So we are stuck here ... for now.
- allcentury 6y agoDepends - Boston can be cheaper if you don't have a big commute and the public transportation can help. Source: I've lived in both.

- yeswecatan 6y agoPhilly is supposed to have an _ok_ biotech scene, so I hear.
- asdff 6y agoYou can work in biotech in any city on the west coast
