Poland did come across as a hard-to-exist-in eastern country on this map as well. The numbers would of course be different, but I'm not sure the pattern would be.

What do you mean? According to this map, you need to spend around half of your salary for accommodation, which puts it near the middle of the stack. And, considering the average salaries, would allow you live very comfortably.

I guess you're right. It's not Vienna, but it's not Kyiv either.

Do you think housing would come out worse in Poland than places like Russia or Turkey if it was measured correctly?

Housing is pretty bad in Poland overall. Cheapest apartments are also 2+ hours away from any work opportunities. I don't know enough about the Turkish or russian markets to have an opinion, though.
