I wonder how you figure what counts as "Seattle," for instance. Does Tacoma count? It's a 40 min drive - people do commute to Seattle. Or is Tacoma under "everywhere else, WA"? It's a $50k/yr question despite the CoL difference not approaching that.

Right. I wouldn't mind moving back out to the redwood tree forest in Northern California, which can be as quick of a drive as 1 hour 30 minutes from SF, but realistically 2 or so hours.

All the other areas in CA it lists are super far away, but regardless I have a feeling it would count it as CA Everywhere Else, despite the prices out there not being far off from Silicon Valley.
