I keep being head hunted to work on SF/SV. And my reply is basically automatic and always the same:
"Due to US external policy and cost of life I can't see it being financially practical to move. Although, I would gladly consider any remote position."
I think the immigration complexity is the lesser problem there. My research based on housing, school, transport and food tells me it looks like absurdly expensive. To be able to even consider to move there I would need a salary bump of 3x-5x. No way this will ever happen.
