Forget Silicon Valley, move to the Research Triangle Park area. We have great weather, a burgeoning startup scene, great food, good public schools, great universities, "day trip" access to both the mountains and the beach, reasonable cost of living, a decent (but not spectacular) live music scene, and the largest research park in the world[1].
Also, there is a "Tech Jobs Under The Big Top" job fair that is held periodically at the American Underground in Durham, where startups pitch prospects to come work for them. There was just one in April, not sure when the next one is. But check http://bigtop.it for more info.
