Python Average Salary Report

[czarina08]

Hi there,

I'm doing a market research report on the average hourly rates for
Python/Django developers. Any input on this? I do understand that it
does depend on the location, amount of experience and skills. I'd like
to hear what are the hourly rates within your area Thanks!

I'm a strange case, but I like to charge my clients what my clients
charge theirs. It's only fair.

This, of course, results in my rates varying from between $25 and $125,
with a mean of ~$50/hr.

More often, though, fixed payment is arranged on a per-project basis
regardless of hours, which I understand to be a dangerous practice.
(Scope creep is my arch nemesis!

Sector and location have a much bigger impact than language/platform
on salary (although obviously demand for different languages varies
by sector and location as well).
