Im in eastern pa, above Philly, i work for an established company that makes their own products, I'm 35 with 15 yrs in shops and 6 yrs on cnc. I set up, edit, troubleshoot, run, and inspect on a 9 axis mill turn, 5 axis live tooling lathe, cnc internal grinder and I make low 20's. But there are some "hacks" barely 5 yrs exp period, making mid 20's. So the real answer is you make whatever you can get!
