Are salaries actually commensurately higher? As far as I can tell, typical engineering pay in NYC is about the same as typical engineering pay in California.

Depends on what you do. Finance jobs (they hire people with engineering degrees) will typically pay better than an engineering job.

California is not exactly known for it's low cost of living. Try comparing NYC and SF to Kansas or something.
