| But, the cost of living is high in the Bay Area |
San Francisco Chronicle/Kevin Fagan, 8/10/13. "BART workers' pay plus benefits among top in U.S."
.... "... BART workers aren't at the top when it comes to salaries, but factor in
their low-cost health care and lack of pension contributions, and they
may well be among the best-off in the country, a Chronicle
analysis shows.
.... Although BART has publicly griped that its workers are getting special
treatment with their $92-a-month health care plan and zero payment
toward their pensions, those deals are not unique in the
transit business." Read article, a transit agency compensation chart, comparison with other large cities is included.
