As a non US citizen, I think there are a lot of high level cultural issues that would prevent me considering a job in the US, well before I pulled out a calculator and starting comparing salary to cost of living.
I won't enumerate them because it would be sure to offend somebody (everybody?).
That would make sense. There are really lot of reasons to not take job offer in US. And even after taking offer many may find job sucks in ways they have not initially thought of.
The only thing that's unlikely to happen is all good things one like to become available at a place one likes to live.
