"More than 50,000 people in the region are employed by the state.

On average, government workers in the region earn just over $60,000 annually, according to federal data. But some earn more, and in some cases, much more."

No they don't. It's a carrot to stay in NY(or Massachussetts as they have a reciprocal law on state pensions). What about it?

I'm a state worker and I don't make anywhere NEAR $60,000. I wish!
According to seethroughny, the highest paid one in Albany makes $175,595 at NYSLRS - Police & Fire.
Is there a way to filter the payrolls so you can only see Albany?
