Moscow, Russia
Income tax is a shallow progressive scale from 13% to 22%, and employees pay no separate social contributions. The centre is expensive and imported goods carry a premium, so the flat-looking net figure hides a cost of living that varies sharply by district.
Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR
Salaries tax is progressive but capped at a 17% standard rate, there is no VAT, and MPF contributions are modest. The cost is housing: rents are among the highest in the set and flats are small, so disposable income depends heavily on whether accommodation is provided.
