I think it totally depends on what it costs to live in that area. Calculate your expenses and a little cushion for savings and such and that should determine your pay. Like, if you live with your parents and go to school, you should probably charge about $8-9, depending on the area you live (and where they live - if the parents are dr. and lawyers, they can afford more). If you're supporting yourself or a family, charge what you need to. You're working full time at skilled labor and should be able to live like it.
