Where are you getting the ~80k salary figure? (edit: sincere question!)

My experience sees an average of 10 to 30k less than that within the city save a couple of outlets (at the developer level).

The rest of what you're saying is totally valid. Most of the places I've rented have been owned by people living at (put mildly) great distances from the city. This seems to be a common experience.

To be honest the number is sort of hearsay. I didn't mean 80k as an entry-level pay, but it seems to be about right in my experience (downtown core jobs).

I'd classify you as lucky, but maybe that's just from my position. I make significantly less working in the downtown core as well. I'm not a senior staff member, but I'm not entry-level either. Either way, I guess it leaves me with some hope.
