Anyone work for a general contractor in the area? (Greenville: transfer, construction)

[StreetSmarts]

I'm just curious, I live here in the Asheville area but I am employed by a company out of FL. So my wages are the same as the folks who work in the FL offices, the TX offices, etc.

My question is, does anyone know what jobs like Asst Project Managers, Project Managers, and estimators make in this area (working for a local company)? I have heard that Superintendents and PM's make in the mid to high 30k's (to start) and go into the $50k's if they have a lot of experience. A chief estimator might make $75k or $80k from what I hear (in the Asheville / Greenville areas). In FL, Asst PM's and PM's make in the $50k's (to start) and go up to the low $100k's...

Anyone know what those folks make who live in the AVL / Greenville area? I'm trying to decide if after our project is over, if I should stay in Asheville / Greenville or move to Charlotte or Raleigh area, etc. It's hard for me to justify making $25k - $30k a yr less for doing the same thing even though I like Asheville and Greenville areas a lot! As far as what I've observed, on my FL salary, I make about 15k more for (doing the same job) as those working in the Asheville area currently are. Thanks! And as experience increases, the pay in larger cities (Raleigh, Charlotte, Orlando, etc) are at least 1/3 higher than that of Asheville and Greenville. we really like Asheville and Greenville areas, I'm just concerned that I may always be making a lot less here than I would if I transfered back to one of our FL offices. Thanks in advance!

For what it is worth, I don't know how accurate this site is, but according to Salary.com there is little difference between the salary range for a project manager in Greenville (Asheville was not an option), Raleigh, Charlotte and Orlando.
