Here in Portland, which is a relatively cheap city compared to most tech centers, $100K isn't enough to get the attention of any dev who isn't just out of school, and even those devs will have an easy time getting something better-paying in a year or two once they have some practical experience under their belt.

That's not true. The average salary for a Software Engineer is $101227 per year in United States. Data > personal anecdotes. Many SWEs earn less than that.

Portland might be cheaper than SV, but I think it's still in the top 25% most expensive (just my impression).
