Big cities don't have to be bad to live in... but they often are.
Sofia isn't anything special but it has quite beautiful neighborhoods which are of course quite expensive to live in.
Back yard? You only have that if you live in villages with like 2000 people. Our capital is so crowded that the real estate agents feel really proud to advertise 68m2 apartments with two small rooms and a tiny kitchen, it's that bad. Good views? Forget about it.
(I am considering moving out of Bulgaria to Vienna/Austria exactly by the way; but I'm for the moment too scared to do it.)

Having your own backyard is definitely a luxury in Munich, we have one because we're kind of at the outskirts and Google pays well (and as I said, it's quite small), but it's very common here at least for regular people to live in small apartment buildings (like 8-12 units) with a decent sized shared backyard. Especially if they're in a suburb of Munich, which still lets them access the job market there of course.
