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"

    Austin used to be okay. Now more and more people have come here, and the infrastructure is being overwhelmed. Many businesses and government agencies are already thinking about or actually planning to move out of the downtown area, as the overcrowding is getting worse, parking is unavailable, and driving during rush hour gets worse every single year.

    Unlike bigger cities, that are designed to handle that bigness, Austin is not designed for this influx. Plus, North Korea had Austin on its list of cities to nuke. Best if none of you risk your lives -- stay out of Austin!
