> SF or NYC

That solves my property too expensive problem how?

More seriously...not super keen on living in the US to be honest. Could probably do it practically, but given my life circumstances it would be a net loss.

Well you would probably make $300k, so your income:price ratio would be more favorable.

The income:price ratio would be better if you only consider NYC/SF prices. If you also take in account the vastly lower prices in other regions, suddenly the ratio would become a lot more favorable in those other regions.

Wait, how common are $300k salaries in SF/NYC outside of FAANG-level companies?

This forum isn't Teamblind.

Not who you asked but because people have lives built where they are living and they don't necessarily want to move to an entirely different continent away from their favourite people and places even if they could be making more money?

Like if you want to do that power to you, but this seems like such an insane question to just ask a stranger on the internet given that there are very obvious reasons why a person might not want to do that

You say it like it's super simple...

I did it.
