Keith Rabois has wanted to leave San Francisco for a long time. He pays taxes he believes are egregiously high with, he feels, only a failing public school system, rampant crime, and terrible commutes to show for it, he told Business Insider.
The outspoken investor is now a general partner at Founders Fund, where he works with his early PayPal mentor Thiel. Rabois was referring to the tremendous concentration of founder and engineering talent in the Bay Area, which has made Silicon Valley the undisputed center of the tech universe for decades. Prior to now, he said it was "psychologically difficult" for him to imagine a great startup being built anywhere else.
"The idea that there's this powerful network effect in the Bay Area was already eroding," he explained.
