They're based in Dania Beach, Florida. I'd guess the job market is not quite as liquid as in the Bay Area.

People get locked in, family commitments etc. etc.

And this is a great example for why people stomach the cost of living of the Bay when that argument arises...

Lower employment risk due to more high paying jobs and increased job liquidity.

Yes, it's a trade off. Living somewhere expensive where there's little liquidity sucks.

Living somewhere cheap, where you can get occasional well paid work and save money can also work.
