ping time and latency

Well im trying to decide on my next dedicated server and i have these two ips from the places im decideing from.

I get 30ms from 139.81.128.5, this is becuase i live in Va and the server is in GA

and I get 80-90ms from powersurge.net, this is due to them being in California (across the US) (Is 80-90ms acceptable for being on the otherside of the US?)

Also 139.81.128.5 takes more hops to get to but is still faster and geographically closer, while powersurge.net is farther, and takes less hops but the ping time is higher.

Anyone have opinions on who to choose based on this info?

I don't know if i should go with the one closer to my state, becuase not all my users are local.
