QoL in Europe is better if you are a below average to average earner. Many excellent perks and social benefits to cover things that are usually very expensive.

QoL in the US is better if you are an average to above earner, and dramatically better if you are are high earner (like SWE's). In large part why the US brain drained so much talent from Europe over the last 30 years.
