Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Progressive income tax tops out at 30%, and EPF takes 11% as a forced retirement saving alongside small SOCSO and EIS contributions. Rents are moderate for a regional capital, though car ownership and tolls are close to unavoidable outside the rail corridors.

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.
