Banking salaries in different cities

Banks recently bumped IB 1st year analyst to $100k. Is this for New York City and California locations, or can I expect the same in Houston or Charlotte?

I know personally that some locations pay different salaries. For example, NY IB salary for my BB is 100k now and our offer letters were ~80k. I’m in an extremely LCOL area tho (like lower than Houston and Charlotte).
