Are there any programmers earning 130K in KC? Depending on where you are in the country, the new H1-B pay floor may be above the local pay ceiling for non-managerial positions.

I'm sure there are a few but isn't that the point? If all the H1B's are in CA/NY/WA maybe KC (and cities like it) will become more attractive to programmers as they raise their wages.
