I left the bay area in 2020. Neither of those 2 really were on my mind. I haven't heard any horror stories about tech companies trying to enforce any kind of non-compete outside of CA so it never really popped in my mind.
Biggest issues were 1) no state income tax, 2) money goes a lot further, 3) gov't policies unfriendly to businesses and middle class, 4) more moderate political climate, 5) better social life.
What I miss the most is the more temperate weather and being able to grow food in my backyard.
