It's really hard to compare both dev markets. In Europe, salaries varies a lot depending on the country.
There is Switzerland where average dev can earn up to 120k CHF (~ $130k) [1], and on the other hand we have Germany with average of 60k EUR (~ $70k) [2]. The UK is rather similar: 60k GBP (~ $82k) [3]. To have a perspective, we can also add Poland to the list: 240 000 PLN (~ $61k) [4].
As you can see, it's not that simple, especially when you take into consideration the tax rates and costs of living in each country.

- atraac 5y ago240k pln in Poland is a rather high-end senior pay. Also usually net on a b2b contract, so the actual salary would be around 170-180k(46k $) pln after taxes. Admittedly you can live a really decent life for this here.
