Hiring might be up but that doesn't make it any cheaper to live there. Housing on average is nearly 5 times the cost of average US houses.

Check out this guy (Cameron Moll) -- he's a fantastic designer and passed up a job with Apple partially because of the cost of living (he's a family of 6). Even for a family of 2 or 4, it's hard to find an affordable place to live.
