A one bedroom is not $3000+ either.

A one bedroom in London is easily $2000 though, so that only explains $12k difference in salary.

Doesn't make sense to count in dollars. You are not paid in dollars in London.

It's fluff talk about the exchange rate. It sure was more than $2000 last year when it was £1 for $1.5.

They very easily are. And cost per square foot is higher in London, so you're in a smaller place.
