London and Paris are low CoL relative to the Bay Area.

Not really. London is not much less expensive, and I’m not familiar with Paris but it seems roughly as expensive as London at a glance. The big difference is many costs, especially for young families, are socialized in those two places. For example, health insurance.
The salaries shouldn’t be compared with private, but should be compared with other non faculty salaries within the UC system, or across universities in the world.
A faculty in London, Paris, or other high CoL city would love a pay boost to 107k.
