      People in San Francisco seriously underestimate how good of a salary $75-85k/yr is in the Midwest. We have grads making $80k where you can buy a nice three-bedroom home for $175k. Your mortgage is $600/month, which leaves over $6k/month before taxes.

      They undoubtedly have a higher quality of life than someone in SF making $150k

          $150k is entry level at AmaGooBookSoft in the Bay Area/Seattle/NYC.

          That’s way better than average bootcamp grads do though. WAY better.

          Are you saying that average bootcamp grads do $85k in the midwest? I am talking about ~10% of entry level positions. Maybe formal education still carries a wage premium.

          Just to clarify, I am talking about base salary + annualized portion of stock award + target bonus. Base salary alone is closer to $100-110k.

          Depends on your perspective and definition of “QoL.” For me, the thought of living in the Midwest, even with a bigger house and more room for the paycheck, with the horrid winters and summers, equals a lower QoL for me. To each their own :) <3

          I feel like this is Lambda big “secret” (in the “Zero to One” sense); people in SF/LA/NY think everyone wants to live in a dense, bustling city

          Let alone remote work, which allows you to live in much more affordable places with an even higher quality of life.

          Agreed. You can’t afford to own an apartment in Manhattan on a 150k salary either.
