I suspect I'll be down-voted for saying it, but Silicon Valley does not need housing or offices. People need to move out of SV. Software can be done from anywhere...why bother doing it in an undesirable area? Everything in the Bay Area is overpriced, and most of it is pretty boring. SF certainly is not boring, but it has also turned into a dump (was way cleaner when I was a kid, not sure what happened). And yes, there are VCs outside of SV, believe it or not -- not that proximity to VCs should be a deciding factor of where to base your company. (For the record, I grew up in the Bay Area, if it matters.)
