By reading Hacker News I had the impression that everyone there that is not a junior is making at least U$100k/year, except for special cases in rural areas or small towns.
That impression is a bit skewed by the large number of HNers who work in places like silicon valley and NYC, I think. There are a lot of places in the US where you can be very, very comfortable on $75k a year.
