Got news for you.
I took a great job for a great company in Scottsdale az several years ago.
Loved it out there.

Problem is, I'e traveled all my life and I've never seen a place that cost
as much as Scottsdale az for housing.
72,000 didn't go very far out there....

Check this out.  This is what we deal with:

Salary in *Austin TX*: *$65,000*
Comparable salary in *San Francisco CA*: *$112,453.99*

If you move from *Austin TX* to *San Francisco CA*...
        
Groceries will cost:    53.198%         more
Housing will cost:      207.016%        more
Utilities will cost:    4.013%  less
Transportation will cost:       15.369%         more
Healthcare will cost:   29.768%         more


I don't know ANYONE around here who makes $112K programming.  The MOST 
I've ever seen was $110K for C programmers in Silicon Valley at the 
height of the dot com boom...

(Anyone wonder why I'm 'retiring' to Arizona?)
