All of these places are aggressively poor choices.
- malfist 2y agoThe article mentions they specifically didn't choose the corporate headquarters in California as a hub because it wasn't low cost of living
- endtime 2y agoI moved to Dallas from NY last year and am really enjoying it.
- archagon 2y agoIn what sense are they poor choices?
- simfree 2y agoEither your living somewhere that is very hot for a good chunk of the year and has a rapidly increasing cost of living, or your stuck in the rustbelt. Most of these cities aren't renown for their access to mountains or large state and national parks, making it much harder to enjoy the outdoors lifestyle that so many Patagonia customers participate in.
- leereeves 2y agoReno is right next to Lake Tahoe, a very popular outdoor recreation area, and the Tahoe National Forest. It's also just a couple hours from Yosemite. Salt Lake City also has fantastic wilderness nearby, and one of the best winter sports scenes in the nation. Perhaps in the world - they hosted the Olympics in 2002 and probably will again in 2034.
