I would not even think that, putting aside career-location lock-in that might occur after moving, unless one moved to the place where you grew up, and still had various friends and general comfort, or a place near your parents and other relatives, or possibly 3 or 4 other cities in the U.S. On the first two, you're not moving back because no city could possibly provide those friends and/or that family.
On the third, I realize these things are highly subjective, but objectively speaking how many cities have enough to offer (putting aside local connections) that they are equal or superior to the SFBA, at least in sufficient respects?
I can think of only 2 candidates:
New York
Washington
I could be persuaded on more subjective factors to include Chicago, Boston, LA, and Seattle. Beyond those, it's regional preference.
