London has a similar issue with house prices / rents continuing to rise much faster than the rest of the UK.
I relocated from London to Barcelona 3 years ago to do remote freelance work. The cost of living is lower here with a good quality of life. There is lots of interesting work in London and its a good place to gain experience but I've got no plans to go back.

And unlike Silicon Valley, same salaries are still being offered. Hopefully exiting EU will ease the pressure and make the competition for talent more healthy.
