For fucks sake, when did this become an inquisition? My point was simply that the OP's spouse's income AND EARNING POTENTIAL is going to be a LOT larger than any salary he pulls in Federal of Local LE (unless he's moving to Suffolk County, NY).
But, since you've asked, you're incorrect on your interpretation of the pay scales. LEAP and Locality are additive, not multiplicative. So, you get base pay +25% for LEAP, and + % locality. The LEAP doesn't apply to locality pay, and vice versa. I'm making about $142K, if you must know the specifics of what a 13/10 with LEAP in RUS makes.
Public discussion of salaries is giving me Forrest Whittaker eye.

I appreciate it. I find the federal pay structure opaque. The “top line” salaries are pretty low, for my area, but it looks like adding in leap (whatever that is) and locality pay, the overall pay is pretty good. They should probably advertise that.

Are you loyal to the constitution or the “institution”?
