I'm well aware on account of living in non-Netherlands Europe.

It's a mixed bag for sure, but Europe as a whole does better on both the metrics I mentioned as compared to the U.S.

Exactly. Live in the U.S and just trying to look for a place that puts you in non-car distance to ANYTHING basically shows you one of two options:

Quaint small vacation towns that are expensive because they're full of retirees. Won't find great jobs or necessities there...
...Or giant, overcrowded, crazy metros like Chicago, NYC, San Francisco. . .which are also absurdly expensive, dangerous, and downright filthy.

I feel like Europe at least gives you a way better chance of finding SOMEWHERE that works.
