It's going to be different for every GLO. It may be cost/tax consideration, historical significance, proximity to other GLOs, geographic centrality or some mixture of those or other reasons. In the early years of many GLOs, the "national HQ" was wherever the exective secretary (or like officer) lived.
Our HQ is in Evansville, Indiana. We ended up there because of connections with Evansville businessmen who were hoping that the Fraternity could help establish a musuem of American music or music hall of fame in Evansville. The museum/hall of fame idea fell apart, but we stayed in Evansville.
