SN Member McGruber points us a study by TriNet that provides (buzzword alert!) 'cloud-based human resources services.' The study concludes that Austin is the place to go.

From the article:

"Austin ranks Number 1 in the nation when it comes to offering the largest tech salaries that have been adjusted for cost of living expenses, such as housing, groceries, utilities and other necessities.

The seven major tech hubs, ranked by cost of living adjusted average salaries:

1. Austin: $105,000

2. Atlanta: $103,000

3. Denver-Boulder: $98,000

4. Boston: $79,000

5. Silicon Valley: $78,000

6. Los Angeles: $70,000

7. New York: $56,000"

    The cost of living in Austin continues to go up. However, it is still cheaper than living in southern CA. It doesn't surprise me that Austin is near the top of the list. I am a tad surprised that it is the top though.

      I wonder how Minneapolis rates.

      Adjusted for temperature, it rates at the bottom.
