Average salary for a senior copywriter or ACD in San Diego? Currently working in Midwest and seeing a lot of mixed info in regards to cost of living comparisons

Cost of living in SD is comparable to LA. San Diego actually is a tougher market because it’s a smaller city so rent or buying in a decent neighborhood is expensive. Also a lot more bad neighborhoods than good ones in San Diego unless you move to the burbs and commute.

I have about 7-8 years of sales experience and have consistently out performed my OTE. I absolutely love my current role but I feel like I have out grown the company as there isn't a ton of opportunity to make more than I am currently making.

I opened up my LinkedIn to recruiters but all the offers are 60-70k base and 120-140k OTE. I am shooting for MINIMUM 80k base but ideally 100k or more.

What would you do?

Hello Sharks
Off topic: I am planning to buy or book a car by end of this quarter. I can spend upto 20 lacs max. So suggest me a good car.
Also, is it worth spending upto 20 lacs on a car? Why asking because constantly gets feedback from everyone includes friends, family and wife that live your life and don't think much if you can afford. I don't know if i can afford it not. But I am considering one time as well as running cost. My CTC is more than 35 LPA.
