Gender ratio is a consequence of our industry being gender imbalanced and tech being the superstar industry of the area. If you want to find all of that except for the climate, you can find it in Seattle. The wages are almost bay area levels, the housing significantly cheaper and better quality usually, no reams of crappy 1930s craftsman track houses everywhere. You have no state income tax and tech doesn't dominate as much, so it's significantly more gender balanced.

Austin also has that potential I hear too and it's a sunny place. Texas also doesn't have state income tax.
