Different witholding tax rate across cantons

Hi,
I searched in the forum but could not find a definitive answer. it is a known fact that the witholding tax rate is different for each canton (Zug canton being most attractive with less tax rate).
My question is what are the advantages of staying in a higher taxed canton apart from reasons like it is nearer to your work place.
Does a higher taxed canton provide better living standards?
or is the cost of living less in such higher taxed cantons? in terme of rents, cost of groceries, insurance costs etc...
If there are no such explicit benefits, it is easier to assume that eveybody who has freedom of mobilit with respect to thier permits would live in Zug.but clearly this is nit the case.
I am Non EU with a B permit and can live in a differnt canton than my work canton. I am thinking of moving but this huge difference of tax rate between my current and future cantons has held me back( i will pay more in the future canton)
I dont mind this as long as i know that there are other benefits offered by the highe taxed canton. if they do exist, can anybody tell me what these are?

Cheers
Happycreature
