“I was in Stockholm in April. The cost of everything is outrageous. And this is why.”

Stockholm is expensive, but not to people from Stockholm.

Stockholm is very rich compared to most parts of Europe and the US.

Average US wages seem laugable to middle class inhabitants of Scandinavian cities like Stockholm, Oslo and Copenhagen.

Yeah, no. Swedish salaries are low compared to the US and other European countries. Well — people with “low income” jobs are sometimes better off in Sweden - at least relative to the rest of the Swedish population.
