    Least surprised - Turkey. I grew up there, oddly common to have a religious uncle living in Germany.

    Most surprised - Russia. Kazakhstan??

    Finns racing for that sweet flat tax of Estonia (but also half the average net salary so hmm).

      What do you know about taxation in Estonia? Curious. The flat tax is on income ? Is there really a land value tax ? Thanks.

        Estonia is kinda shitty imo (im estomian🇪🇪). We dont have any big political activity except Tartu. Most people are still with this soviet mindset that you can’t have impact on anything. Which lead to status quo coming to power , thus increasing poverty, and now conservatives get more popular, because they promise infinite QoL and money glitch, which will lead to even worse conditions of the country i assume. Estomian electorate can not think about any left idealogies apparently.

        BTW: eventually i decided to revive the Pirate Party of Estonia. So if there is some true patriotic estomians, visit https://piraadid.ee/

        Estonia tax rate is 22% on personal income – so for both income and capital gains. Also the dividend/corporate tax is quite company-friendly, companies pay corporate taxes only for money taken out as profit. I’m sure there are some details here that I don’t know about rising the tax rate slightly from what I say here, but not by a lot afaik.

        Quite the heaven for economic right-wingers. On paper at least. I’m guessing the practical reality (including a bit higher risk from Russia, I guess) isn’t enough for that many Finns to move there, whatever their politics.

    As you can see. The Dutch stay in “dutch-land” :-)

    Because Holland is the best. Nobody wants to leave!

      It says Spain, but I won’t blame you for reading this confusing map wrong. (Also, no mention of how many people actually go to Spain.)

        I don’t understand? I do not see my dutch flag on any other country. So logic tells me we apparently never leave ;-)

          No see, that’s why the map is confusing. The flag shows for each country where most people from that country emigrate to. So people from the Netherlands emigrate to Spain, people from Spain emigrate to Germany and people from Germany emigrate to Switzerland.

    Greece and Albania are 100% accurate! Also Albanians, their second choice is Germany too. edit: why no one wants to go to Italy? like the go for vocations etc, but they don;t want to live there? weird.

      Italy might be nice to live in if you’re financially independent and don’t need to work, but aren’t they kind of famous for having a terrible economy for the last 50 years or so? I’ve also read it has an increasing number of people living with their families into their 30s, not by choice, but because they can’t afford to live on their own with the current jobs available to them. With factors like that, plus their increasingly xenophobic government, it doesn’t surprise me that people who have other options will prioritize them, rather than moving to Italy.
