The Cities With the Highest Salaries by Profession
Your profession is probably more in demand and is paid more in some cities than in others. Accountants tend to earn more in San Jose, for example, while surgeons tend to be paid more in Columbus, Georgia. Find out where you can make the most depending on your job.
The data processing site StartClass uses data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics to rank cities by average annual wages for all measured occupations. The interactive spreadsheet also provides data on wages nationwide, past wages and the number of people employed in the profession.
Of course, you’ll also want to keep the cost of living in mind, so the site has a relative wage calculator that takes into account the cost of living in the area (or you can use this city cost of living comparison tool ).
StartClass offers a ton of other useful comparison tools that you can get lost in during your lunch break.
