What is the typical increase in salary to work in NYC vs. DC? Would it be around 5%?

For example if I look at a job posting in NYC which includes the salary, the same role at the same company in DC will have a salary of 5% less.

DC salaries can be higher depending on industry. Companies pay cost of labor, not cost of living, and some jobs cost more in DC than NY.

In my industry senior auditors in DC typically make more than seniors in NYC. Pentagon audit being a cluster makes accountants more expensive here, even if you’re not working on it.

Example: I make 108k in DC. Same role, performance, and YOE in NYC would make 103k in my firm.
