I know others who did the SF thing after college and tell me stories about sharing apartments with 5 other people. KC with its Google Fiber and open source tech culture is really a nice find.
When I have gone to SF / Valley and see billboards for things like Cisco routers I do feel like I fit right in. On the other hand, big city life has its share of negs. KC is more like a big "town". Plenty of upscale culture, lots of tech although the Tesla will have to wait. Gotta love its inherently friendly mid-western personality. -- On Saturday, March 29, 2014 7:13:47 PM UTC-4, Simon wrote: > > I recently moved to Silicon Valley but I grew up in KC and I can say that > is a really affordable and high quality place to live.
