The reason i trust them is the people, the work and not the location. Coinbase is backed by respected investors, the founder is well known and they seem to be in for the long run. Security wise, they have implemented many counter measures to prevent funds being stolen and so far i haven't heard of any breaches. They can handle large sums of money with no issues. So to sum up, they don't do sloppy work and the founder won't mysteriously disappear with the funds.
