if Facebook had stayed in Cambridge, there's also a great chance that it won't be the Facebook that you know today. I firmly believe it's possible to succeed outside of SV, but I also believe it's harder.

When Facebook moved Silicon Valley was expensive, but affordable.

It's legitimately hit the point where the cost of living is a true obstacle, as opposed to a priority.

I'm more concerned that the network/talent they needed to grow and scale was more in SV.
