Move from CA (Bay Area) to IL (Oak Park) - Huge Paycut Normal?
I work in IT and made about $39 an hour at my previous job in California. It seems the same job here is around $21-$30. I was offered a job that pays $26 which would be a 33% reduction in what I was making.
I’m definitely not expecting the same pay here, but does that seem about normal moving from a HCOL to LCOL area, and is this a sustainable and comfortable salary for a single guy?
