That’s a misrepresentation and basically using the Bay Area as a reference point. I’m in Chicago. Starting sw engineer salaries is probably around $90k-$100k. The housing nightmare exists but not as bad - depends on your school district. A good 3000 sq ft house in a suburb palatine/Arlington heights or Buffalo grove is around the $600k-$800k mark. You could obviously go smaller for a lower price.

So a house is 6x a yearly tech salary - that's pretty bad.

If you think this is low, you should check out some of the insanity in the US and Canada. Today I read one for a senior dev, $45,000 USD!

I just had a CEO reach out to me and offer an informal interview for a developer position that pays $50k in the US. Then he said he would consider me even though he would prefer someone with a computer science degree. I politely declined.

At least he offered a salary. I once was offered only equity in a non-formed dream corporation with the promise that "once we have a product"...

True but it offered no benefits and $50k per year isn’t enough for a single individual to live in my town with a marketplace healthcare plan and a 1 bedroom apartment. So it’s definitely not enough for a family man.

I imagine he hasn’t had any CS grads apply to work for $50k and no benefits so that’s why he reached out to me on LinkedIn. I’m no CS grad but I’m capable of making far more that $50k fortunately.
