Do you live in a particularly expensive area?


Yes, the San Francisco Bay Area... which is not only expensive to live in, but software engineers are in high demand and well paid. But pretty much anywhere in the USA, $30 is not high pay for a software engineer.


$30/hour for software devs in Scandinavia divides how much people earn up to if their education is short, and from if their education is long.


long education being, what, a PhD?
