There are a large number of people who make significantly less than SWE here that have and raise children.

Rural Appalachia is one example.

Appalachia is much cheaper than SF, so one can make less and still have a good time raising their kids. It's not about absolute income, it's about purchasing power parity between areas of a country or world.
