If you are skilled labor, yes: expatica.com/…/the-dutch-30-ruling-explained-1016…
But what @abbadon420 said is equally true. Housing market’s fucked beyond belief. Now, if you want to WFH and live out in the sticks, you’d be set.

The average house, including the shitty apartments in the middle of nowhere, is 440k

You can drive though the Netherlands in 3h, for Americant’s that means there are no sticks.

The Netherlands is less than half the size of my state. There is nowhere in the Netherlands that is more rural than where I live right now, lol.

Eh, there are a few spots that it certainly feels like it, especially the Frisian islands.
