The highest average salary in Bulgaria is in Sofia - 1732 euro, and the lowest in Smolyan - 826 euro. These are the data from the National Statistical Institute (NSI) for December 2024.

Because of the salaries in the capital, the average salary in the entire south-west region of the country is the highest - just over EUR 1,500. Outside the capital, however, nowhere else reaches this level.
