Cairo, Egypt
Personal income tax is progressive up to 27.5% after a fixed allowance, with social insurance deducted at source. The pound has weakened repeatedly, which makes imported goods and private schooling expensive, and rents in the newer districts have climbed faster than local salaries.
Toronto, Canada
Federal and Ontario taxes apply together, alongside CPP and EI contributions. Housing has become the defining cost, with rents and home prices outrunning incomes for years, so a salary that looks comfortable on paper often leaves little after rent and transport.
