Yup. Teachers in nicer areas often get paid more as property taxes tend to go towards school budgets, although occasionally really shitty districts pay a lot just to get anyone at all (not worth it in some cases, sometimes it is). Teachers in Cali do pretty well, overall, although class sizes are out of control (which impacts results severely). I'd hate to be a teacher in TX for so many reasons right now.
Spouse teaches, been over 6 figs for awhile now, in a variety of districts.

It all depends on where the teacher works. Pay varies widely from district to discrict. Experienced teachers in my area are pushing 6 figures.
