I'd be reasonably certain that $100k in the Bay Area would leave you with pretty much the same lifestyle you describe here in London.

There is quite a gap between London and the UK as a whole, for better and for worse.

Are they paying 100k in the Bay Area or more upwards of 200k?

In tech (which is what is relevant to this post), pay is much higher in US tech hubs than it is in London. I had to move from tech to finance (still in a tech role) in order to get anywhere near my Seattle-based tech salary when I moved to London.
