Many people would think so based on ignorance. No matter how much money you have, you are stuck with US cities, urban design, car dependency and the problems with those, like homeless people, crime, traffic, etc.
No matter how much money you make, you won’t be able to bike ride everywhere, to work, to anywhere, like in some countries. Instead you will be in traffic.
You will be forced to drive your kids everywhere until they are old enough to drive themselves, where in other countries kids can be independent at 7 years old, they can bike themselves anywhere, it’s all close by.
You won’t be able to work part time and maintain career progression.
You won’t be able to have weekend trips to other countries for cheap.
Etc
US is the best car/suburbs style place to live. Compared to countries where everything is also car based and there isn’t really walkable city centre like in Europe, then yes, US is better for most if you have a high income.
