Was it a bad decision to accept this offer?

I left a fulfilling job as systems Engineer and moved to Seattle for my boyfriend in October. I'm not sure if the timing was wrong but I only got a call from AWS Systems Engineering team for L5.
They gave me an offer for L4 and I took it because I know I'm really good at what I do and I could prove myself and get promoted in a year rather than waiting for the right job. Patience is not my Forte and I knew I'd get desperate if things didn't work out the way I wanted and settle for less.
I know they low balled me but is it by a lot?
YOE: 5
Base: 100K
Sign-on: 25k+15k
RSU: 35 shares (standard vesting) which worth 62K at this point.
