Would have liked to see these numbers adjusted for cost of living. Making $145,000 in silicon valley is not anywhere comparable to making $145,000 in Podunk Florida, and thus I'm not sure what value to derive from this data, with respect to my own earnings.

Just scroll down and they provide a regional breakdown and the median difference is about 20k. So it actually makes sense for the median engineer to move to a cheaper location.
