Mecca was a stable city with a flourishing trade; the people there were not especially receptive to new ideas about God, particularly when they economically threatened the trade with the pilgrims.
Yathrib was a divided city of tribes; three Arab and three Jewish. They were already exposed, through the Jews, to the concept of monotheism and they welcomed Muhammed as a potential peacemaker who could "see both sides" of the Arab-Jewish question. (This didn't work out; after a time, Muhammed became convinced that the Jews were plotting against him and had them killed or enslaved. To this day, no Jews are allowed to come within sight of Yathrib, now named Medinat al Nabi, the City of the Prophet.)
