Damn we are literally worst from former Eastern bloc EU countries. Everyone who was close to us(Poland, Czechia and Estonia) is doing much better, so much for Tatra tiger lol.
Austria is also impressive(almost doubled), I wonder how they grew so much compared to the rest of the west.
Especially with income those numbers should be adjusted by PPP.
It would be easier to compare if you matched the colour scheme between the two images
This looks great… Until you factor in inflation and the growing cost of living.
It’s nice to see Eastern Europe is getting paid a lot more now than in 2013.
I wonder what this map would look like if we adjust it to inflation?
I assume the €27 change in Norway is this small because of our weakened currency.
I get sad when I see that Poland has an average wage higher than Portugal, and a lower cost of living. I mean, its great for Poland and proves that capitalism works, on the other hand, whatever the missguided Portuguese policies are, they aint working.
Besides Poland and Baltics, Cyprus nearly doubled.
It that because of some tax heaven thing?
Eastern European countries have improved a lot. But Western European countries have mostly suffered a drop in purchasing power after accounting for inflation.
…and they will still say that “putin had gotten up Russia from its knees!”
n Cyprus that average is not representative. Most of people are around 1200-1400 but lately we have a huge influx of foreigners from Russia/Ukraine and Israel that earn upwards of 5000+ that skew the average dramatically
Thanks Erdogan!
Slovenian growth is really impressive, obviously a few others as well.
Looking at these you’d really think countries in Eastern Europe are doing so much better.
Yet 10 years ago cost of living in these was super low compared to the western countries. Today after crazy inflation prices are getting close to prices in the west. Your average income isn’t the full picture, buying power would be a better metric.
Italy wtf
What happened in Andorra and italy?
Russia: evolving backwards
Italy: “you guys are getting raises?”
Slovenia catching Italy
so Austria made a huge improvement?
Try median income. Also, it seems like it’s way too much for Austria. Arbeiterkammer tells me it’s about 2.5k.
Embarrassing
Why Denmark has the biggest growth among the Nordic states?
Nice to see I am below average since 2013. #Rope
Baltics – holy crap O.o
Russia getting down while the Baltic’s improving to very decent salaries…
Beautiful.
Congrat guys.
Adjusted for inflation, most Western Europeans saw either stagnation or outright declines. The big winner seems to be Denmark.
Eastern Europe has seen huge increases, except obviously Russia.
Now I’d be more interested in PPP.
Funny average, now check the mode to see the real income
1700 avg for Italy? In which alternate reality?
That’s BS. The average net salary in Hungary is still around 600-650 EUR. The only thing is increasing here is the inflation.

Where did you get this data from?
Interesting to see some countries got poorer

You even have the map for that in the article you’ve used as the source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_European_countries_by_average_wage#Net_average_monthly_salary_(adjusted_for_living_costs_in_PPP)
