If you are bored in the San Francisco Bay Area the problem is likely internal rather than where you live, so moving (even to somewhere awesome like Austin) will not resolve it.
Well that's a strange way of putting it. I understand what you're getting at, but every city has its own character. What if you're bored or exhausted with the Bay Area's character? Yes, that's an internal conflict but also yes, moving elsewhere can solve it.
It may be a great town, but it isn't the only one and it certainly isn't the most exciting or engaging. There's too much else going on in the world to put one place on a pedestal.
