New York Magazine has a great piece showing the salaries of hundreds of people in many professions, all of whom are based in NYC. There’s even a description of salary trends and amounts in sectors like publishing and TV News, both of which are well represented in New York.

So, you can take a look at http://www.nycsalary.com/ to see the salaries of people in NY. It’s actually real data, freedom of information act stuff. Pretty interesting. It doesn’t have trend info though.
Awesome site!
This is very useful – ironically, I started the same time as a work mate and I found her salary on this site – I guess it gave me a reasonable idea of where I should be. Problem is, my salary is there as well…
