I get the equity thing, but it’s a gamble from the beginning. I was cofounder of a healthcare startup in Chicago in 2015 and all the equity in the world meant nothing because it flopped.

But did you find it easier, harder, or about the same to recruit after offering equity? FYI I don't know what level of equity you were offering if you were to even know if this is a good question.
On the startup/equity front, I would agree with Emathias. However, as far as straight up salary goes, it only makes sense that the wages on average in Chicago are lower than Bay Area/NYC due to COL disparity.
