Europe has lower rent, health care insurance, and more vacations

For me? Because it is hard to pimp myself to please recruiters, relocate, get visas (especially now)...

Trust me, it's worth it. Really, it's not that much effort and it's worth it to signal to recruiters your real worth. And don't forget not all recruiters are equal.

And the visa issue is way overblown. It's easier than you think for a real engineer with experience.
