One can earn 1.5–fold more in Budapest, than in Northern Hungary
There are still considerable differences within Hungary, if we take the main economic indicators into account: for example, in the industry in Komárom-Esztergom County last year, more than 15 times as much value has been produced than in Nógrád county, while net average earnings are almost one and half times larger in the capital than in the most backward regions.
Northern Hungary, the Northern Great Plain, Southern Transdanubia – these are the most underdeveloped regions of Hungary for decades. The larges part of the industry is limited to Budapest and to the West and Central Transdanubian regions – reports mfor.hu.
