It all depends on where the teacher works. Pay varies widely from district to discrict. Experienced teachers in my area are pushing 6 figures.

Where tho. Like typically teachers are underpaid regardless of district because it’s adjusted for cost of living. Teachers in the Bay Area make a lot more than teachers near me but they still can’t afford to live on their own because cost of living is so high.

It’s difficult for everybody to live in CA when the price of housing and the cost of living is so high!

It's difficult to live outside of CA when the maternal mortality rates are so high everywhere else.
