Downsides: not as pretty (though plenty pretty in its own way), worse weather (hotter in the summer, colder in the winter), people seem a bit more high-strung.
Edit: totally responding to the wrong post. Tabs are confusing. Sorry guys.

76% more in Manhattan. Housing is 164% more expensive.
I'm a Californian who grew up in a "sunny" California city, and I've been living in Seattle for the last year. I've also spent a lot of time in San Francisco in my lifetime.
I, miss, the, sun. Every time I go back to California and visit family/friends, I start to realize how depressed I am up in the Pacific North West. I've had more that one person recommend that I take Vitamin D supplements, which is supposed to make me feel better.
The moral of my own personal story is... I'm moving back to California. I need sun. I'll pay a premium for the mental health of myself and my children.
How many days of sun are there in San Francisco compared to Seattle? If you had to live in a place with awesome tech scenes but with no sun, you might as well choose Seattle... it's cheaper.
(Hint: Move to Austin.)
