This is because all the young engineers want to live in the city, and if your startup isn't in SF, you essentially can't find young engineers (which means you're stuck paying about double for the ancient 30-50 year olds).I know a couple medium-sized startups (200-500 people) outside of SF that are forced to bring in 50-100 engineering summer interns each year, hoping to recruit a few of them after college.
