If I leave a job in SF, I can have a new job within days. I am not sure the same can be said about other regions. Yes, its ridiculously expensive here, but I know I will have a job.
I'm originally from Michigan, and have lived in Houston, Boston, and Ft. Lauderdale. I can safely say that the "cheaper" places were a huge PITA to find a good job in. Especially if I didn't want to deal with office politics, puritanical dress codes, or other stupid bullshit.
And fwiw, I've worked with Startups, Hospitals, Banks, Researchers, and Factories. There are definitely bonuses to living in a cheap & small town. But unless you are able to work remotely you will likely have to "settle" for a job.
