Personally, I've decided to leave the rat race of Silicon Valley / SF and take my family somewhere more quiet where we could settle down. I've had one hell of a time finding a job that would be okay with a remote employee, though. I had a couple companies who at the start said they would but when the day of the real interviews came they would suddenly get cold feet.

For all the complaining about a lack of talent, the people making the hiring decisions sure don't seem to want to compromise on this point. That sort of "perk" is huge for me -- it's the sort of thing that would make me interested in your company in the first place.
