As a business owner of a small IT consultancy in Boca Raton, you probably could find an entry level person for about 25/hr, but you would need to include/reimburse for mileage.
If you look in the South Florida Business Journal, you will see that IT networking is @ 3% unemployment and application programmers here are under 1%. So you basically have to get technical people through attrition (i.e. take them from somewhere else). I just had a client of ours get shutdown by the government (foreclosure business) , and they had 5 help desk guys and an IT manager. All of them found jobs making 55-75k with bonuses, 2 weeks vacation, 401k etc. The IT manager went to a bank where he became one of the back end engineers for low 80s if I recall. These guys are all in Hollywood, right in the middle of where you are looking to hire. This isn't meant to be anything more than information from someone who lives, and works in IT down here . You can probably find someone who is willing to do the job within your range, but I would expect a decent turnover rate because once they get 6-8 months experience they would likely be picked up by a competitor (me! J ) . Our two help desk (9-5 in the office remote 90% of the time) make in the low 50s with 401k and flexible time schedules . I hope that helps .
