Berlin, Germany
Income tax is progressive, with a solidarity surcharge for higher earners and social insurance covering health, pension and unemployment. Rents have climbed quickly but remain below London or Paris, and everyday costs are moderate, so a mid-level salary leaves more room than in most western capitals.
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.
