Population density: - Germany: 239 people/km^2 - Switzerland: 563 people/km^2

Public funding per citizen per year: - Germany: ~200€ (2013, so 250€ with inflation) https://www.bmuv.de/fileadmin/Daten_BMU/Pools/Forschungsdate... - Switzerland: ~750€ (2024) https://switzerlandtimes.ch/swiss-public-transport-revenues-...

So you have a third of the money, and about half the population density.
