Brit moving from Singapore to usa

8 years ago

I have early this year moved to Singapore from U.K. My employer now wants to move me and my family to USA. I have some questions:

If I make USA 100k basic in Singapore what should I ask for in USA (San Fran) to offset cost of living. Assume I make another 150% between bonuses and stock. It let's focus on the basic.

Assumptions:

Wife will not work
Have a newborn (3 months)
Will need a good car
Would like to live in warmer part of Bay Area

What do you think would be a comparable offset to Singapore? Would I need say 165k to match 100k?

It's hard to find a proper salary calculator due to the vary taxes by state in uS. Does anyone have a link to one? What's my total damage going to be say 150k?

Also we tend to prefer modern, contemporary and clean design. I know it isn't too common in SF so is this style going to come at additional cost?
