I just moved from San Francisco to Nashville, TN last week. For me, it was a combination of the cost of living and lack of family in the area. I'll always miss San Francisco, but our rent has halved, our square footage has doubled, and I no longer pay state income taxes. I'm still doing interesting work (remotely) for the same company, so I can't complain!

As you're getting connected in the local community, check out a little service I built: https://twitter.com/NashTechEvents

It's driven by ML using Meetup, Eventbrite, and a bunch of other data sources. And always open to feedback. Feel free to drop me a note. :)

Congrats on getting out of the bay! so many of us think of it, but with family and friends around here, it makes it much harder to leave.
Congrats on the move! How's the tech scene?
