Think you need to do an in-depth research about the pay in Austin. Money does go a long way here but companies don't pay you as much as the Bay Area. (After offsetting the difference)
Why do companies pay so little in Austin?
What do you mean by that? You do realise that the salaries that you see in the Bay Area is not normal right?
30 to 40%. I'm basing it on the other way, I.e the bump you get from Austin to bay area
When I moved from NYC to Austin my base went from $200 to $155. 2 years later it creeped up slightly to $168. Your money does go farther here but not as much as what the online calculators will tell you.
The rents & housing costs have shot up in the last few years. I wonder why people still call Austin a low COL area.
Because lots of people considering the move start with a Zillow search and don't understand the traffic patterns, see houses for $350,000 that are 15 miles from the city center and don't realize that's an hour commute.

I am starting to think Chinese interviewers currently fail non-Chinese candidates on purpose.

The job market is absolutely brutal right now
10 is just covering tax difference, no COL difference. 20 seems reasonable
