>Still, we earn 1/3 in dollar terms per Capita compared to the US or Germany.

It's not a meaningful comparison without cost of living adjustment. You're not paying 3000 dollars for a one bedroom apartment either. In fact last time I visited Poland I think a place in central Warsaw was like 600 bucks. Poland is exceptionally affordable.

For those on tech wages, which have reached near parity with the west, or work remotely for western companies, yes. But not everyone in Poland earns tech wages.

Rents in the West aren't high just for tech workers.
