But many startups are now choosing to leave the capital city they once flocked to because of the rising cost of living, low funding, and lack of diversity, according to TechCrunch.
Because these things are better in California? Where are they going?
Things are bad for tech (and business in general) but it’s not better anywhere else.
There’s certainly more diversity in parts of California, and “low funding” may refer to incentives and tax breaks given to companies to do business in an area.
Remote work, despite what many of the Business Journals have been doomsaying, is still very much a viable option. So they don’t have to stay in Texas, and they can operate from wherever.

Where is home? They moved to Austin for a lower cost of living, it’s still significantly lower than most other places.

Cost-of-living was the reason they moved here in the first place, and the article states it is also why they’re supposedly leaving.

Right, I suppose after the first $100k, tech billionaires just make the other $999.9M+ for shits and giggles.
