The Global Move

I Can’t Find a Job in the Bay Area, So I’ll Search in London

Revelio Labs data shows more U.S. tech workers moving to Europe than the reverse, but the shift isn’t driven by geography alone. Remote‑first policies and global R&D footprints have flattened opportunities, while cost‑of‑living adjustments diminish the Bay Area’s salary edge. Developers now view relocation as a lifestyle choice rather than a necessity, and markets like London remain highly competitive. The trend signals a broader rebalancing of tech talent across continents.
