Happy doesn't go west with Biff because he is still deeply invested in his job and the pursuit of success in the city. He is caught up in the dream of achieving his own version of the American Dream, which contrasts with Biff's desire to escape and find a more authentic life. Happy also feels a sense of loyalty to his father's expectations and the illusion of success that their family has built, making it difficult for him to abandon that path.

Why won't Happy go out West with Biff and why won't Biff stay in Death of a Salesman?

In Arthur Miller's "Death of a Salesman," Happy won't go out West with Biff because he is still tied to his father's dreams and the illusion of success that his father, Willy, represents. He feels a sense of obligation to stay and pursue the business opportunities in New York, despite their futility. Biff, on the other hand, refuses to stay in New York because he recognizes the emptiness of his father's ambitions and wants to break free from the oppressive expectations placed upon him. He seeks a more authentic life, which he believes can be found away from the shadow of Willy's dreams.

Biff unlike Happy, the Loman's other son , moved out west to go work on a farm instead of working as a humble salesman.
