When I lived in the Bay Area, it was a ball of stress to "keep up" the salary to be able to enjoy anything, as I wasn't being paid those "top salaries" everyone uses in their data summaries. I couldn't ever purchase a home, and these were important things to my lifestyle. I moved to Seattle and now I'm seeing these obscene pricing trends happening here (and with the worse weather, too, sigh).
I think the best city is the one where you find a sense of belonging and contentness. Data doesn't cover all the nuances of happiness.
