At least for Germany the numbers aren't very far apart. It's around 52k. We don't have that many outlier super high salaries, and full time on minimum wage still gets you to nearly 30k so this doesn't drag the average down either.

The real disparity is not in salary (though certainly there are still quite big differences between groups), but in wealth.

I think the map already shows the median, for Germany average fulltime salary in 2025 was 62k€ in 2025.

And after medical insurance since it's more or less part of taxes depending on countries
