I read this as Kentucky salads.. then interpreted as KFC Chicken Salad..

Retail is a little over 100K. Hospital probably a little under. I am not 100% sure because I work for the VA. Those salaries are available online. GS-12 I believe.

Sounds right. Cost of living is pretty low here too except the license plate renewal thing- ripoff!! Louisville people know what I'm talking about.😡

Are u talking about vanity plates?

Not the vanity plates- you have to pay taxes every stinkin' year on the value of your car when you renew your tags. It is a total ripoff! My husband gets so mad because they don't have that in Michigan where he came from. Car insurance is also higher- I think it's because KY people can't drive. 🙂

Metro insurance rates always suck no matter what big city you are in.

you mean on the order of hundreds to thousands of dollars a year? like you would pay sales tax when you bought the car?

It's not just a metro thing. It's a kentucky thing. Insurance is expensive in kentucky because of allegedly higher rates of paid claims.

You don't pay as much as when you bought the car (6% in kentucky) but you do pay tax every year (I don't know the %). It decreases every year as the value of the car goes down.

I think everyone is convinced that no matter where they live their auto insurance is more expensive than it was the last place they lived.

it always feels that way even when it's the same. woohoo for finally getting the discount for being 25!

I passed 25 a few years ago and I didn't see a change in my insurance. Also, there is a HUGE difference in insurance costs. I had a 2001 S-10 when I was stationed in California and I was paying 200 a month for insurance. When I moved back to Ohio, I was paying 80 for the same truck.
