If it's that incredibly out-of-the-way (Jonesport?), sounds to me
like salary will have less to do with statistics and more with cost
of living, pecking order, and how badly they need the services.
Also with how much of a bump they can give you without water cooler
fall-out.  Secrets don't keep in small towns / companies.

Might be more useful to have an idea what others in the company are
making, since that probably dictates the range.  I mean, militating
upward with stats will be easy, but they'll only pay what they'll pay.
