> Can you also relate the median wage in Croatia? And how much taxes are taken by socialistical system on the salary ?
Croatian here.
Croatian authorities usually don't publish median wage, but the mean wage, so that the numbers can look less bad compared to the rest of EU.
When talking about wages, Croatians are usually using monthly net wage (after the taxes). The mean net wage for Zagreb (country capital) is around €1000, and in the rest of the country around €800.
For this net salary of €800, there is around €700 of taxes on the top of it, so the mean monthly brutto/gross salary is around €1500, so that's €18,000 yearly (around $20,000 yearly), where €8000 goes to taxes and €10,000 is the money that is left for you to spend.

Median wages would be lower than that.
