Quality of life is important to some people. 250k/year isn't that great when you can't afford a decent dwelling, there's no decent public transit. there's people pooping on the sidewalks, and tech company founders getting stabbed to death in the street.

You're not going to get everyone, but you only need a relatively small number of highly-talented people to make your company successful.

San Francisco has quality of life issues but they are completely unrelated to the tech company founder being stabbed to death by a tech consultant over a personal issue.

> Nima Momeni, the man accused of murdering Cash App founder Bob Lee, stabbed him three times with a kitchen knife on a dark San Francisco street after Momeni confronted Lee about Lee’s relationship with the suspect’s sister, city prosecutors alleged Friday.
