[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's a great idea, I'd love to live somewhere cheaper.[/quote] But wouldn't your pay also reflect the lower cost of living there?[/quote] No I used to be a fed in another state down south and the cost of living difference was very small like $2 or 3k. I actually had one of the highest paid jobs of anyone I knew there and would love to return because we were really able to save a lot of money.[/quote] [b]There is a pay difference. [/b] A GS11 step 1 makes $50k in most of the US. In DC, it's $62k. In San Francisco, it's $67k. A GS14 step 5 makes $96k in most of the US. In DC, it's $119k. In San Francisco, it's $129k.[/quote] Well I moved from a major city that has it's own pay table, so the pay difference was very little. A GS-12 in Atlanta makes $71k. A GS-12 in DC makes $74k. With how cheap it is to live in Atlanta, that $3k makes very, very little difference. [/quote]
