100k or more are not peanuts in Europe. But it's true that this may be part of the problem.

100k or more are not peanuts in Europe. But it's true that this may be part of the problem.
- wil421 4y agoI’ve seen a lot more sub €100k programmers respond with salaries on HN and Reddit than ones close to €100k. A quick google search says the average is 65k in Berlin and around 60k in the UK. London is probably higher for sure.
- quonn 4y agoIn Munich 90k+ seems to be common. Berlin on the other hand has lower costs of living.
- wil421 4y agoThat would explain it, I should’ve looked at Munich. I thought Berlin would be higher.
- zirgs 4y agoYou can get 50-60k EUR in Eastern Europe these days if you know what you're doing. Sure, it's not a FAANG level salary, but cost of living is low here. So I would definitely not migrate to London if they offered 60k.
- DeathArrow 4y agoYeah but 60k is not 100k.
- zirgs 4y agoYou can buy an apartment for less than 100k in those places though.
- DeathArrow 4y agoI am making far less than 100k.
