4. Japan

At 55.95%, Japan also has one of the highest tax rates in the world and a very high cost of living. Interestingly, Japan’s population has been declining year after year since 2015. This is because of aging residents and low fertility rates among young women of child-bearing age. The country’s natural beauty and inimitable culture make it an intriguing place to live, either permanently or temporarily.
