Salary mapping
What does 150k TC in Dallas, TX has to be in San Jose, CA? Married, no kids, single income. What will be the tax rate with it. is it really close to 40%?
300 plus
Following this logic, is 300 in Dallas = 600 in Cali? 300 plus is way off. Theres many high paying jobs in DFW
First try to get the 600k offer jackass.. there are not even 25% of the companies that pay you more than 100k in Dallas
300+
Can you please suggest breakdown? Sr. Salesforce Engineer.
Lol, GTFO with these 300k numbers. 200 at most.
Sorry for your loss
Really? Just 50k more. I think 30-40k out of that will be gone in rent and tax. Only 10-20k for living in San jose compared to Dallas?
Yes. Other than rent, everything else (food, entertainment, clothing etc.) is pretty much the same price in any major US city.
Idk man I think food is typically more expensive here. I pay 5$ for a coffee here and 3$ back home. Also services like Uber definitely seem more expensive here
Yo. This is my analysis. if you want to get same take home in california .. your salary should be 175K then if you want to live exact same life style in california ... then california rent = texas rent + 3k (assuming you are in rental home) 3k * 12 = 36K per annum rent 175K + 36k (excluding taxes) = 175k + 60k (including taxes) = 235k remaining almomst same in both california and texas ... but lets add 5k for safe side ... so 150k in dalls is aproximately 240K in california as per my analysis
But people don’t lead exact same life style in california as we did jn Texas . The above analysis is only for the people to lead same life style.
0% state tax vs 10% avg or more in CA . Don’t forget . I have lived in both places and 300K or below is poverty
So, according to you what does 150k maps to in order to have the same lifestyle and may be same or more savings?
I will go with 300K figure !! Do you own a house and want to own a decent one in Bay Area ? Then minimum 300 or more . If you want to buy a broken house then less . If you want to have room mates then less . It’s subjective to life style . If you want to drive 2 hours one way then less !! Long list! But a median will be 300
Makes sense. I will probably be in 1/2 Bed apartment, living in San Jose Downtown.
If you are willing to downgrade housing, 150K@Dallas == 250K@SJ. Not having kids means you will have more flexibility to choose where to rent. But keep in mind that *everything* is more expensive here (e.g. insurance, restaurants, etc).
300K
