Corporate finance salaries in NYC

Can anyone shed some light on what the typical corporate finance salaries are in NYC? I'm looking to make the move next year and I've seen salaries all over the place. I'm not too sure what to expect.

For reference, when I move I'll have two years experience at a F500 biotech company, and if it counts an FP&A internship in undergrad. I'm currently making $65k in a low COL city (think Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Columbus). Would it be reasonable to expect $90k? Or is that aiming way too high?

Not sure if I’m qualified for SFA quite yet. For my current company I got an early promotion after a year and I’m one under their SFA title.

With only two years and about a month of full time experience by the time I apply I figured I’d have to wait at least another year for SFA.
