re: Auburn vs Alabama salaries

quote:

---

Alabama has a ton of communications, education and social work type graduates that do work somebody has to do and knowingly do it for less money.

So, that's going to drag down any overall salary number. I'm fine with that.

Again, if you want to know the true difference compare within industry.

Not to mention that any such study that doesn't factor location (i.e. Cost of Living) is worthless.

The same job that I have in the Shenandoah Valley that pays 80k a year will net me 160-200 in NYC, though my standard of living would be the same because of COL.
