>The point I'm trying to make is that if you want professionals (and thereby, businesses) to come and stay, you have to make your city a nice place to live. Tax breaks don't fix a lousy commute.

Moving is easier and cheaper than ever before (mostly also because of the cheap communication technologies that allow us to stay connected to whatever or whoever we might leave behind.)

Therefore the competition of cities for talent rises to a complete new level.

Sites like https://teleport.org make it super easy to compare cities worldwide for life-quality data, costs of living, salary levels whatnot... Algorithms could help you to optimise your life regarding on one of the most important life decisions: "Where should I live?"
