      I think it’s Europeans. I’ve heard that many European countries don’t have high pay for devs.

        european countries also have a lower maintenance fee for staying alive, which evens things out a lot.

        programmer pay here means you can just save up and retire early.

        I’ve worked with programmers from Europe, they have above average pay.

        It is lower than the US, but it’s still higher than average EU salary, plus you get tons more benefits and job security. Also, with remote work, you can get a US job in Europe. You’ll get paid less than if you were in the US, but more than other Europeans, while still enjoying the social benefits, and since you can accept less that makes you attractive to US companies. Main downside is having to adjust to US meeting hours.
