I’ll weigh in since I’ve worked both. Agree with most of what’s been said but I would add that in some fields the discrepancy in pay is huge. As in 2-3x difference.
But, it doesn’t do much good to make a ton of money if you have no time to enjoy it. For me, state has been better since I still do okay and can go to all of my kids’ events and enjoy my weekends. In the private sector, I was working every weekend, missing out on important events and was just generally stressed out and tired all the time.
