That study was done on early adolescents. How generalizable are those results to adult, white-collar workers?

> Virginia has [...] a better social scene

What's your definition of a "social scene"? I have lived in both and have known many people who have lived in both and you are probably the only person I've ever met (myself included) who thinks this.

> taxes are less than both virginia and maryland

Can you elaborate? "Taxes" can mean many different things and, for my situation, income taxes in Virginia are far lower than in the other two municipalities.

> Bay Area salaries, according to levels.fyi, for these levels range from $190k to $350k.

> According to Robert Half, Bay Area salaries are 42% above the national average, so that range translates to $110k-$205k unadjusted.

can someone explain the math here? wouldn't this imply an unadjusted range of $134k ($190k/1.42) to $246k ($350k/1.42)?
