Leo – Thank you for the information…this will help a lot.  I saw the survey on Bayt.com but all the salaries were blocked from my viewing. I am currently research cost of living as well, it seems to be fairly equal to the U.S.
Thanks again, Kelly

This might be helpful – published by Bayt.com (from anonymous employee survey) last week:
Average salary for job title “senior landscape architect”
