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.

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.
