Foreign Service folks routinely refer to their time back at Foggy Bottom as their "economic hardship" tour.
Loss of gov't sponsored quarters means loss of rental income from having to evict the folks that they've had in their house back in the rear, so the mortgage is a hit. Loss of gov't purchased private schools for some. Housekeepers, babysitters, staff, etc. cost more than $50 and two chickens a month. All that on top of loss of any overseas differential, etc. A few clicks of windage on locality pay doesn't make a dent.
