This is totally anecdotal but, moving from Mountain View to Denver was night and day. A couple of examples:

Work seems to go slower here. It seems even the frantic pace of startup life takes a back seat to work life balance.

People aren't usually in a hurry on the sidewalks downtown. It can be infuriating if you have somewhere to go.
