When I'm considering a project outside of my home city, I go to salary.com
and use the Cost-of-Living Wizard. I use it to determine how much I would
need to live in the designated area plus my travel expenses. Then I can
determine what my minimum rate would be.

It's a really nice service.

I'd speculate that it is a bit less than the Bay Area or LA - but perhaps
not by much.
I get contacted for projects in that area - Folsom seems to have quite a bit
of work.
Shall I act more interested, and find out what they are offering?
