If your a software engineer:

Come to Seattle. Reasonable housing costs, cheaper everything else and high american software engineering salaries.

SF has crazy housing costs, higher salaries, better weather and a bit higher cost of everything.

As an Australian a work visa is significantly easier for you than lets say a British citizen.

Yeah, but the US benefits work + personal suck compared to Australia :).

Australia negotiated kick-ass awesome work visas as part of their free trade agreement with the US.

For example, spouses can work on the visa.
