For decades, companies have fled high NYC taxes by putting offices in New Jersey along the I-287 corridor and elsewhere.

In PA, companies have fled Philadelphia crime and taxes by going to the suburbs.

Bay Area could do likewise.

They have already. In the early 90s, the Sacramento area was just "a cow town". Then the Bay Area types discovered that Sacramento existed out of desperation to find affordable places to live (every other community within 50-100 miles of the Bay Area had already become a commuter bedroom community). So, a bunch of tech companies and what-not moved large offices to Sac, and now Sac is a mini Bay Area, and by "mini" I mean a sprawling over-priced suburban wasteland just like most of the Bay Area.
