The Aus stats are from 2021, too (most of the other countries are 2024). I can’t see how PPP was worked out, or if inflation comes into it. Also, '21 is in the midst of covid.
My anecdotal feeling is that our wages go a long way here. Food is cheap and high quality, essential medical care is pretty much free, fuel is cheap, electricity is cheap (in most states), taxes are low.
They used mean wage instead of median. Every calculation from that point on is meaningless.
