3rd figure - Number of jobs in Myrtle Beach
4th figure - Median wage of jobs in Myrtle Beach

I think this is my job. I make lower than the Average in San Diego and I make the average that is in Myrtle beach. The problem is that there are 7000 of my job in SD and only like 80 there.

Healthcare support occupations San Diego: 7,025 / $31,674 | Myrtle Beach: 81 / $28,875

Calculated this as my yearly wage: $29,203
