>>Certified Records Manager - Records Manager as position averages
$71,772<<

Just curious.  Has anyone ever calculated the cost of living into the
salary figures?  It might be an interesting exercise.  It might explain
the large variance in salary.

I used Sperling's BestPlaces Cost of Living Calculator
http://www.bestplaces.net/col/?salary=75000&city1=5120&city2=8840 for
the following example.  Using a $75,000 salary in Minneapolis, MN as the
base, below are the salary figures needed in other US cities:
 - $93,421 in Washington, DC
 - $59,211 in Boise, ID
 - $116,447 in New York, NY
 - $135,526 in San Francisco, CA
 - $57,237 in Bismarck, ND
 - $60,526 in Atlanta, GA
 - $75,658 in Chicago, IL
 - $57,237 in Houston, TX
 - $78,947 in Seattle, WA
 - $57,895 in St Louis, MO

Just a thought on a balmy Friday morning.
