OT, Bakersfield CA relocation.
I have found my current career path at a dead end because of the company I
work for. I have gained the skills they need but they outsource the work and don't have a position open for what they need. Anyway, I'm open to relocation now and have been contacted by a recruiter for a position in Bakersfield CA. at Chevron. I told the recruiter that I wouldn't' be interested unless the position paid an outrageous amount of money. He asked how much I have in mind, and hence this post. This is a 28 hour drive from my current location and where my family lives. To consider this position, I need an estimate of the cost of living in the Bakersfield area. What I want would be enough money to equal what I make now plus the additional cost of living in Bakersfield (a place to live plus utilities) plus enough to fly my family home multiple times per year. I've found some positions I'm trying for within 5 or 6 hour drive that pay in the $120k range, I'm thinking I'd want $150K to relocate to Bakersfield, but I don't know the cost of living there.
