The Triangle in NC has in fact turned into quite a tech hub. Lots of tech jobs and lots of employers with more opening shop every day. There are many large employers here like Apple, Google, Cisco, Microsoft, Github, Redhat, SAAS, Epic Games, etc.

Can attest to this. We have been here almost 25yrs in RTP and absolutely love it. And, the list keeps growing (see the medical companies popping-up in Holly Springs). So many employment choices, places to shop, recreation parks to enjoy. Not to mention the awesome education options (Duke, NC State, UNC plus a ton of great high-schools).

I have been on travel trips to CA, TX, NV, and MA. In my experience, NC is the best place to live...

The bay area has a few employment options, places to shop, parks and no mosquitos, no humidity and milder summers and winters.

Except for the politics being so unwelcoming. I could never live in such a place.

Yeah. And based on the idiotic bills coming out of the NC state government (bathroom bills, now this anti-EV nonsense), these organizations need to step up their lobbying.

And they are at absolute odds with the state government. See the "bathroom bill" for just one example of this idiocy.
