Sure but Londons known for being high wages. Now change that location to Cornwall or the North of England and watch it get almost cut in half.

Manchester is only about 10% below London, other cities along the M62 are about 15% below according to the salary benchmarking data I've seen. The bigger difference is more in the number and type of available roles.

That salary would be above the median for most perm senior dev positions in London, but still well within the usual range for established tech companies and well-funded startups.
