Being a fellow Angeleno, I would have to concur.  LA is a
high-maintenance town.  Low 20s for not an entry-level position is
opportunistic at best.  If you get someone, you won't be able to
retain them for long.

What's my frame of reference?  I'm a museum afficionado who works for
a utility with no degree and makes $50K a year plus.  Not bragging.
Just giving something against which to bounce it off.

And I want to go into the NPO field next year and am willing to work
for less, but not less than half.
