Sorry if i confused you.. by CA i meant Control Assurance. my offer is in the tampa/orlando area (florida) and the cost of living here is much lower compared to CA (california) but i still think 50 is low. what do you think?

If you do a simple living cost analysis and salary analysis you'll find that cost of living is around 26% cheaper to live in tampa than LA and pay is almost 15% lower in tampa than in LA. So 60 is the highest you can get here in So Cal (I haven't heard higher and this figure is rare). The mean is 55. So I'll simply do the calculations here. If you were to get 60 in LA, you should be getting 51 in tampa. You're 50 tampa offer is equivilant to 59 in LA.
However, never hurts to try and see if you can increase your offer before you sign.
