San Francisco is the best -- and not just because I'm a native to the city by the bay. It's the center of tech, innovation, art and creativity. Don't forget its geographic beauty and easy access to world-class wine, food and nature.

But even I have to acknowledge that my hometown and surrounding area, famously known for its startups and giant Silicon Valley companies, is also an unsustainable rental market.

Because it's so expensive to settle down here, one tech company is taking a new approach to the high cost of living. Zapier, an apps integration and automation company, is offering its employees $10,000 to leave.

That's $10,000 to "de-locate" and work from anywhere other than the Bay Area. Take the money and never look back.

In a blog post last week, CEO and co-founder Wade Foster said because "it can be a real challenge to turn the Bay Area into a life-long home rather than a short stop somewhere in our twenties and thirties" they are offering the incentive package to pack up and go.

For employees living in SF and other pricey Bay Area cities, this is like a relocation package, but away from the company's headquarters in Mountain View, California.

"[We] think you should be able to work wherever you want and still work at a place that helps you achieve your career goals," the CEO said about the company that encourages remote working.

Most people seemed pretty into this new-fangled work set-up.

Foster added that the company is experimenting with "de-location" so for now this is only for SF-based employees, but it could possibly expand to other workers living in other expensive parts of the country.

Of course people from outside San Francisco immediately had recommendations of where everyone should move (or avoid).

For anyone dreaming about somewhere just a tad roomier than that tiny junior one-bedroom for $3,000 a month, de-location is here to save the day.
