Low. About 100-120k for senior level.

In Austin you can get anywhere from 100k to 160k. For instance I know for a fact that Amazon pays mobile devs in austin 160k. That said, this isn't san fran. you can own a house for a quarter of a san fran condo's bathroom. I was making more at my colorado job, but I feel like I have a lot more money here.

That's too low. It's 120-140. 150+ is generally principal level.

Considering living cost in Austin I wouldn't say that is low.
