I spoke to a few companies, one of them said they offer same package in SF, Seattle and NY.
I am currently living outside of the United States looking to relocate, for maxing out income, is Seattle clearly a better pick? By how much? I see there is 10% less state income taxes.

Anything else hidden? Such as other contributions that can reduce taxes more in SF compared to Seattle?

I have spent many weeks in both cities, i prefer SF due to weather and being a little more central to the tech hub.

The package range i'm looking at is PM ~L6 ~500k

    There’s a certain charm that SF brings to the table which is unparalleled, in my opinion.
    The mindset that has helped me to not crib and not have FOMO (friends buying houses, etc) due to expensive lifestyle in the bay.

    I am here in this world to have the best life for myself and donate the rest.
    Not looking to build generational wealth, rather raise capable kids.
    Not looking to retire ever. Enjoy working, not over working.
    Finally, I am constantly thinking about making more over saving more through cutting corners and living a “adjust” based life.

    P.S bring the hate on. Or spread constructive feedback :)

      So many people seem to not understand that you need to pay taxes on the extra money needed for the tax difference. That increases the difference.

    San Francisco is a great city, just v high cost of living. Seattle is LCOL and has the outdoors. Depends on your preferences, but if it was me, Seattle hands down. I love hiking and kayaking.
