#2Austin and Seattle average salaries of $190K for developers?
And yet SF and NYC are still stuck around $130K, which is only 20% higher than what it was 10 years ago, and these cities are far more expensive to live in?
What's the draw, why don't more developers move to Austin or Seattle?

This isn't the raw numbers. It's based on cost of living adjustment to give what the equivalent would be in SF (at least that's what I understood from the article).
It would have been useful to show the raw numbers next to the adjusted numbers in the image.

Those numbers are adjusted to the cost of living in San Francisco, so the comparison is not quite as bad as you think.

It's unfortunate that they don't specify what those adjustments are.

#10I wonder what India would be like - not as high wages, but the most expensive apartments in bangalore are like $700 a month.
