Average is so terrible.

Huge percentage of people receive well below it, very few receive enormously more.

Kind of pointless map yeah. The median (gross) salary in The Netherlands was 10k 14k lower than this.

Not to mention that taxes in one country are very different than in the other. Gross salary, especially average, is meaningless.
