Keep some perspective in considering the cost of living, too. The area's high cost of living is merely an inconvenience for someone who's that lofty income bracket. For the people living on the community's median household income of about half that, I imagine it's a lot rougher. For the >10% of the community's unemployed people, it's probably downright disastrous. And I imagine from the perspective of those folks, when the $100k earners complain about the cost of living it looks a whole lot like crocodile tears.
