€80K in the Netherlands puts you in the top 1.5% of household income[0]
That said, it's possible to be in the top few % in a major metropolis anywhere in the world and still feel 'average' simply because the cost of living is so great and you're spending >50% of your income on housing.

- leto_ii 7y agoI'm not really saying that 80k is a little - it's not. It's more than fair - just not a shitload. Note however that the chart shows disposable income, which I'm pretty sure is the one after tax. 80k gross is more like 48k after tax.
