    i must be quite mistaken about teachers saleries accross the nation.
    i am making $19,500. i am a half time teacher. i have 9 years full time
    experience and 52 graduate credits.
     our high end step is 54k. i mentioned that i am in rural upstate new york.
    average house in our town is 70k taxes are high but rents are low. apartment
    for $450. or a house for $600. cost of living is quite low here but so is
    access to anything. an hour to a mall or museum or decent restaurant.
    my shock here is that i thought we were average saleries. rochester new
    york, i have read, has saleries in the $70's.

    don't forget new york's tuition for higher education and required masters
    degree! most teachers (that don't have rich parents) walk out of their
    university with a diploma and a $50.000 loan.
