Are you asking if average salaries are higher in SF and LA areas to compensate for higher cost of living? Depends on your chosen profession…not always.
And Corbett does bring up a good point. Generally speaking tho the coastal areas of Ca are pretty relaxed and liberal…with the exception of Orange County and most are pricey too 
It sounds like you need to do a bit more research and visit the campuses you are interested in so you can get a vibe for what each has to offer. We aren’t the GoldenStste for nothin
