Marin is over an hour away by bus from SF, with no train or BART. Basically to work in Marin you have to live in Marin, so any company that moved there wouldn't be taking advantage of the SF/South Bay labor market.

I just came back from Europe and opted to pay for the upgraded international T-Mobile plan since 2G is barely usable. LTE was around $35 for 15gb. It was way more useful than 2G but it also felt like I wasn't getting full LTE speeds
