Rent for a decent one bedrroom apt in NYC is like $5000 a month. Not including
utilities and paying for health insurance etc.... If you are single with no
wife and kids then it could be somewhat doable but not with a family. Also
travel cost if you plan to commute 2 hours each way a day to get to work.

Michael,
That is a good data point - so the low end of their salary range seems on par
for where a new photographer should be, or at least in line with the past
(almost) 2 decades.
If the salary range is commensurate with experience, and you have someone with
5 years experience, then $80k high-end would equate to a 7% pay rise over 5
years from that base.
NYC is far different than the rest of the country - things like % of income
dedicated to housing is what outsiders view as ridiculous.
$60-80k seems like a good range for a show-up-and-shoot ophthalmic photographer.
Around 25% higher than what i would expect a similar role in Philadelphia to
pay on either end of the scale.

I lived in NYC on 42K as a retinal angiographer right out of school just 16
short years ago.
Good to see that base pay in NYC has gone up 2.253931% per year over the last
16 years (yes i did the math). Just FYI the average rate of inflation from 2002
to 2018 is 2.05644%

I'd guess there aren't many photographers living comfortably in Manhattan, but
rather they commute from the outer boroughs or Jersey.
