Ummm and just what does a hyper-competitive job market get you in quality of life? 80 hour work weeks?

What does a highly educated workforce do in their spare time... leave each other spellbound in "app algorithms"?

Really what you describes sounds so shallow and pretentious... just how many nights does one in Silicon Valley eat out anyway? And what if you don't like Sushi or Napa or Somona Valley wines?

And as for affluent surroundings... I guess living among million dollar housing just isn't what it used to be....

If that's the way you want to live in a high tech high tension world... go for it... but not everyone views that as living... life is too short...
Real estate is expensive when a lot of high earners want to live there. When nobody wants to live somewhere, you get Detroit prices. I didn't know this was a foreign concept.
