What a $120,000 salary in San Francisco is worth in Prague?

San Francisco, United States

California adds a steep state income tax on top of federal brackets, and FICA takes a further slice for Social Security and Medicare. Salaries are high, but the Bay Area premium shows up mostly in housing, which is why a six-figure gross can still leave only modest savings.

Prague, Czechia

Income tax is a flat 15% up to a high threshold and 23% above it, with social and health contributions deducted on top. Rents have climbed quickly in the centre, but public transport and everyday costs remain low, so take-home pay stretches further than in western Europe.
