i'm using 38K as an example. which was the figure that was being thrown around.
and for the record you couldn't live in CA for $38K either.
38K in westport ct = $47.5K in Santa Cruz CA
same for greenwich
but santa cruz isn't a rich city. I'd say Danville/Blackhawk has much more money.
So a better comparison to stratford would be something like blackhawk or los gatos/altos.
but keep in mind most cops can't afford to live in the city they work for either.
