People hire people who they relate to, and they tend to hire people close to their age. In a company of many young people, they are more likely to hire people close to their age. The startup in the south bay where I work tends to have an average age of around early to mid middle age, with many young families. There is also an age group with teenagers or children who have moved out. I'm probably the 3rd or 4th youngest engineer in the company. Younger people tend to live in SF because that is where the younger person lifestyle and people their age tend to be. After I am finished with my current company, one of my criteria will either be a company with a bus to the south bay, be located next to a caltrain station or to be located in SF or Berkeley. The iOS developer having a hard time in SF should try looking for a job in the south bay because he will find many companies comprised of people his age there.
