RE: HP Position Available in Texas



An useful Web site for comparing cost of living is

http://www.homefair.com/homefair/calc/salcalc.html



For example, living on an income of $100K in Washington, DC, would require

$153K in San Francisco.

My post took a middle road, and actually, somewhat

justified the lower salary in Texas.  I didn't justify

asking for the sun, moon, and stars.  



However, there are too many people in my field [not

HP] who will settle for $28-30K a year with an M.S.

and $35-$36K with a Ph.D.



Salaries in California _should be_ higher than those

in Texas, because it costs so much more to live in

Calfornia than it does in Texas.  When it's on a $35K

salary, the difference in cost of living between

California and Texas is a very large percentage.  When

it's a $55K salary, it's a lot more easy to make a

choice between the two locations.  This is the case,

even if one merely rents or buys a small 2-bedroom

house.  Do the math.
