How many different cities on the front page at once before this becomes absurd?

It's been pointed out that this self-reported data is mostly worthless, and is likely just to make you feel bad.

I for one have definitely submitted false data to these sorts of polls.

Even though this is a small sample of data, the results are already wildly different from what various career sites are posting.

I'm a software developer in Toronto and have various companies invite me to come work from them frequently. Most of those offers aren't in the 6+ figures range.

Websites like glassdoor provide some insights. I don't know if it's accurate but I'm going on a hunch that it's more accurate than this thread.

Why would you submit false data?
