Ask HN: Is 170k a good salary for a software developer in Seattle?

I have been offered a job in Seattle that will pay 170k in total comp. I have 10 yrs of experience in software dev. Another competing offer was from Facebook but I declined it because they wanted me to join at in one level down than my current role.

I am 31 and don't have kids.I plan to marry next year. My wife may or may not work.

If I move to Seattle, what are hobbies I can pursue? I heard its usually gets very cold in winter. I haven't made up my mind but I found a place near UW for $1400 per month.

What are your thoughts?
