Europe is not a country, these vary wildly across members of the EU/UK/Europe more broadly.
As an Irish person, I'd love if the weather and social services were better here.
Yes, pay and money matter. It's why people go to US rather than Canada.
If you can only afford rent on a Canadian salary as a tech worker without much profit, why come here?
Canada has bad weather, expensive large cities and an overworked health care sector.
At least Europe has better weather and social services.
