Come if you want - 56% income tax - housing shortage which is leading to landlords charging 1.5k eur for just a room - ever increase in public transport (train) unreliability and degrading conditions (shorter carriages during peak times) - increasing health insurance costs with fewer benefits - diversity, inclusion and acceptance by the community - directness (although it's a fine line between being direct and rude so YMMV) - poldermodel (things may take a few iterations to get done)

California has 45% (marginal effective combined federal/state, for any nitpickers) tax rate, even higher cost of living, and no health insurance at all by default.
Are you trying to keep it to yourself? Obviously there are some very good aspects and people want to live there.
