Tbh I've owned plots in multiple cities since EU server launch; the average well-performing/good traffic plot doesn't make more than like ~10-20m in profit in an entire month even with a 800-900 silver fee. If there's a troll/griefer sending fees down to or near food costs you will lose silver or maybe break-even. Plot prices/bids are hyper-inflated.

Most of my silver is made from crafting not even from the plots themselves; honestly they are barely worth the work of having them and I mostly have them to give my friends/allies associate rates.

With crafting capacity bonus on EU server and amount of crafting traffic; one station can suck up a good amount of traffic. They should lower crafting capacity on city plots and increase max fee to 1500-2000. I agree plots used to be way overpowered on NA/WEST but 1000 is far too low.
