Shouldn’t we up our standard developer cost for inflation? That barely qualifies for the median mortgage in the US.

- twbarber 3y agoI believe the 120k number was in reference to the OP’s Aurora spend.
- Filligree 3y agoWhat makes you think a standard developer can afford a mortgage?
- nightski 3y agoI find that highly unlikely. Maybe in specific markets but not US wide.

- hibikir 3y agoThe median home price is under 400K, so a 120k salary is not really stretched. Now, median in the Seattle metro, or in San Francisco, sure. But 120k in, say, St Louis is still going to get you an intermediate dev, no problem, and they can afford a house by themselves too. There are 4 bedroom houses in my neighborhood for 300K.
