The country-wide median for SWEs in the US is about 110k$ AFAIK, the median household income in the US is 1.3 times that of Germany, which with an average German salary SWE salary of 46k€=53k$ (I know, should use the median here, but I couldn't find data on that) would predict an average US salary of 68k$.
US SWEs have it much better than Germans across the whole country, there's no need to deny that. Berlin is also a bit of a bubble.
