Programmers want high pay, your choice probably shouldn't be Silicon Valley

The highest-earning cities in the US are not the San Francisco and San Jose, the Silicon Valley, but Seattle, followed by Houston.

Bloomberg rankings The monthly income and income gains of STEM majors (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) in major U.S. cities since 2008. Seattle has the highest average wage level (14930 dollars) or cumulative gains (18.8%). Two to five of absolute wages are Houston, San Jose, San Francisco and Washington. Two to five are Houston, San Francisco, Washington, San Diego and San Jose.

The strong performance of Aviation city Seattle and Oil and aerospace Houston on the list has little to do with the Internet, possibly thanks to the booming of local physical industries.
