Honolulu's cost of living is comparable. Housing costs are slightly lower but food is much more expensive. I make just a little over 90k as a senior engineer and still living pay check to pay check. I probably can make almost double in SF from talking with other engineers I know there so it may be better for me to move.

I paid $1,600/month a few winters ago for basically a wooden shack with tin roof and high speed internet (across the street from V-land). Nice work/life balance, code, surf, code, surf, woohooo ;-)
