Ehh it might just be that the cost of living in some parts of Greece are much lower than in others, making the average salary much lower than the requisite for covering cost of living for more expensive regions.

Numbeo seems to support this based on CoL in Athens: https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/in/Athens
