When determining prestige of district attorneys office, does size matter as much as location of district? If so, how many attorneys would make it big? 50? 100? 200?

I think both factors are related. Prestigious offices are prestigious because of their location, which is usually metropolitan areas, which usually means bigger size.

I think you know the answer to that question. 20 adas isn't a relatively large DA's office. Prestige of an ADA position/DA's office is really dependent on a lot of factors. Personally, an ADA position in a smaller/more rural office who handles jury trials and more serious offenses is more prestigious than an ADA in Manhattan only doing prelims. It's all relative.

For that matter, I know of smaller DA's offices that pay higher than metropolitan DA's offices.
