Typical salary for a senior dev is around 20-30k PLN per month, which translates to $65k-$100k per year (gross). Also, a lot of devs do a little bit of tax avoidance that is currently not persecuted, which allows them to pay total taxes below 20% on that amount. So, your take-home pay is $50k-$80k.

That's a good salary, better than Romania on average. And if you also have lower prices (at least that's what I heard), even better then.

Typical, yes, though it's possible to earn way more than that. Not that 20-30k PLN per month is bad, the average Polish salary is perhaps around 9k and the median around 7k.

20-30k PLN goes a long way in Poland. Some seven years ago, I was spending around 7k PLN a month, living in the beautiful Warsaw old town, 50 metres from Kolumna Zygmunta, eating out all the time, and generally felt I was living like a king. Good times!

It does go a long way, but note that 2019's 7k PLN is today's 11k (or 15k if you use the Big Mac index).

That is a decent salary! I guess it could be an option for me one day if I get tired of the US.

These were typical salaries 2+ years ago. Things changes substantially since. New hires earn less across the board, irrespective of experience.
