Yeah, really, here in Pittsburgh $2k/month is enough to live pretty comfortably.

Yep. When my salary bumped up to $2k/month, I was ecstatic; I could finally start putting some money in the bank. It's the most I've ever made, in my last 5 years of financial independence.
Also, if you are married (or committed to your SO) and you have 2 incomes in the household, then $2k/month is actually a good amount of dough. It is probably getting in the zone of quit your day job money if you have further plans for your startup that require more focus and time.
