Top salaries, better-than-average talent pool, strong community of startup founders/funding, and the weather is lovely. I personally love and have benefited from the "pay favors forward mentality" that I've encountered in the Bay Area. I feel confident that I can send a 20 minute ask to basically anyone, and probably receive a small favor. This adds up and compounds over time!
