My take home in Seattle is ~2.3 times what I made in BC. That&#x27;s not including stock and bonuses either.<p>Granted my rent has gone up by a factor of 3.5, but after paying rent I&#x27;ve still got double the money leftover. Other things are cheaper too.<p>Now of course there is a couple years experience vs when I was in BC, but I would still probably be close to double.
