I was fortunate enough to secure good salary because skills aren't prevalent here. (Engineering mgmt.)
I do note that prevailing salaries for staff Engineers are lower than in Midwest where I came from yet COL is similar to maybe 15% higher.
Yes now that I think about it, there are pretty areas in rural MO. Should have said Kansas or Oklahoma.

Once again, when these things make Oregon look bad everyone calls the methodologies hogwash.

When these things rank Oregon highly everyone just loves them and never questions the methodologies.
