For example for a software developer - a Senior SWE in the USA can make 150k-500k depending on location and company.

I am a little tired of EXAMPLE JOB being “software developer” when discussing economic conditions. How about “lumberyard worker”, or “salad guy at the restaurant” instead for truly assessing how affordable housing should be?

totally agree, not only are some of these salaries only for crazy places like California, but it feels very dehumanizing to people of other careers.

Also, if the demographic you’re using as example for income contains people who makes more that three times what other members of that demographic makes, then what exactly does you example illustrate?
