I live in Poland and I was in all those countries that are listed in this video, but I want to add an important note here: you said that you can live in Poland for 1500usd a month, the truth is that average salary in Poland is around 1000usd so believe me - you can live here for less than 1k USD a month :) and Cracow is considered as one of the best places to party in Europe - opinion of people I met from Spain, Italy, Belgium, Germany, UK :) you are all welcomed here 😁
How much is a recently built townhouse (140-160 sq.m.) in Gdansk or Krakow? :)
wow!
Krakow ? Thanks for the advice 👍
Thank you! Thinking of moving back to Poland in few years 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Coming to Poland soon!!! 😅😅
Hard to beat Spain! I’m a retired Brit & 2 blocks from the Med in Costa Blanca just south of Alicante with amazing beaches,parks & very safe. My TOTAL monthly outlay is around 700 including rent , ( 2 bedroom apt 450 including utilities, ) WiFi & netflix is 40 p month .Plus eating out once a week & my monthly groceries is total of 200 Euro s. pm so my TOTAL monthly outlay is Less than 700 Europe’s per month!
That surprised me. As i searched some information about Spain, their general income is around 2000 USD
Sounds amazing! I am American but my father is from Spain. I would like to retire there. I am 43 and looking to explore!🌄 This sound's great! That's a lot.
@@jademartinez8143 Hello beautiful lady how are you doing today?
Maybe Portugal....
Really!
Amazing
HINT: Those countries are cheap to live in if you have a western salary. If you live and work here, it is not that great.
Exactly my thought. Take an engineer working online from a US company. could be earning $70k and live like a king in these countries
@@ahmadgoro3574 well you still have to appear as if you’re not wealthy, or else you’re more likely to be targeted for violent attacks
I was happy to see Montenegro was on the list, but very suprised that other former countries from the former Yugoslavia didn't make it. Serbia, Macedonia and Bosnia are all very nice affordable countries.
Cost of living is ok, but the HDI in Montenegro is a HUGE difference from the HDI in old Yugoslavian republics, except for Croatia and Slovenia due the Eurozone.
Bulgaria is the cheapest place to live in EU. People are friendly, there's a lot of history, food is great, there are 4 seasons, mountains and beaches to explore and chill on.
Yes it is. And so much Thracian and Roman heritage to be found in Bulgaria. Been a few times in the country. Very very friendly people. The food is good, but don't expect refined dishes like in Italy, Spain, France and the Benelux. The warm weather and beautiful nature makes up for it.
Sofija, the best
@@ikiristovska4053 I liked Plovdiv in particular, also Varna.
@@stroopwafel6141 Plovdiv, Varna and smallish Veliko Turnovo.
Which languages do they speak?
As a Bulgarian, appreciate your selection!
I love Montenegro beautiful and natural beautiful clean rich country Montenegro 🇲🇪🇲🇪🇲🇪🇲🇪🇲🇪🇲🇪
You,re pretty sure that,s Montenegro is a clean country,I,ve been many times,I dont think so.🤣🤣🤣🤣
I want to move to Europe sometime in the next 5 years I’m sick of the gun violence in the USA.
if u r sick of the gun violence Canada should do the trick already
Sir you visit Europe or not after two years
If you are thinking about moving to another country, learn their language.
Совершенно верно
Georgia, the country not the state in the USA, is cheaper than every country on this list.
Yes, Atlanta is really cheap!
@Ray This view varies depending where you're from. But generally Europeans came from Georgia. Wine came from Georgia. Culturally Georgia is in Europe. Geographically Georgia is also in Europe as terrain defines geographical borders. European geo borders are defined as Ural Mountains - Caspian sea - Caucasus mountains - black sea. Poitically though Georgia isn't that much in Europe unless you count Polish-Baltic intervention in 2008.
You can look all of it up. It's on Wikipedia and stuff.
@Ray though it participates in all European tournaments))
@@patricksweeney5308 Armenia is much less developed than Georgia. Their people are not friendly either.
R u from Georgia?
Nice and informative, thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing 🙏
I'm sorry, but Czechia and Slovakia are for sure CENTRAL EUROPEAN countries.

My name is Abigail from Ghana 🇬🇭and I’m 23 years old. I am currently working in Dubai and my contract will end after 2 years. When I’m done with my contract I want to travel to a Europe. Please can anyone help me ?
@@BondJFK why Botswana?
@@naapinkfriday585 chart me up
You said 30% of polish people speak english... I don't think so 😂. Maybe maximum 30% people in big cities know some english words. The level of teaching english in polish schools is still very poor and it didn't change to much for the last 10 yrs.
You said as well that is it possibile to live in Poland for less than 1500 USD a month... I'd rather say that 50% of people have to survive for max.3800 PLN (900 USD) a month if you're lucky. Many of us take much less than those 900 USD a month working harder than you can imagine. Poland is a good place to live for 50% of Poles and rich foreigners. The rest of us is in trouble, therefore so many of us live in the western country. 👍
For mě great video! 1. Bulgaria (Sofia) - i was born here. 9. Czechia (Prague) - the city where i am living right Now, yesterday i was on that bridge. Slovakia(Bratislava) and Poland (Wroclaw) - two cities, that i know well And like them much. Thano you!
are they friendly to Americans? I also have Irish passport.
@@magamaga1827 All this nations are mostly friendly , no matter where you come from. I know one canadian here and he lives good here. Of course, bad people exists all over the world .
Ukraine is cheap, modern and accessible. It’s no wonder that it is one of the growing destination for digital nomads and expats in Europe.
There's just that pesky problem of Putin moving tanks in and blowing the fuck out of it and everything that moves. No big deal, right?
@@spiegel3269 lol
Yeah im considering moving to Ukraine at some point in the near future
It will be even cheaper. Rent in Kyiv is 50% of the price you would pay before invasion.
This comment didn't age well
Outside Europe , Some of the easiest and quickest citizenship to get without investment are Uruguay, Argentine , Canada and Peru.
Several Latin American passports allow visa free entrance to The European Union countries...
Latin America has high crime rate.
Canada is actually not an easy country in which to get citizenship.
@@sherrieshatzen3801 I did it. I was neither hard nor easy. It is easier than getting a PR or citizenship in New Zealand, Australia and USA. Canada is slowly becoming Chinada. I am moving to America now.
Yes. Go to Latin America and they will kill you there
Some places in Latin America are safe ...
Chile and Uruguay are ones of the safest but Venzuela is the opposite...
Romania is the best! Amazing food, mountains, seaside, The Danube Delta, it has so much to offer!
And people live on 300e /month there. Idk how they manage, but it's maybe because of vast house ownership and not paying rent.
It's scary bcoz of dracula hahaha
@@fluxuleducatiei hai pe bune, binenteles ca se gaseste un "destept" sa ne faca de cacao. Cine traieste in Romania cu 300 de euro? Niste pensionari care au lucrat la CAP toata viata(binenteles nu e vina lor) si in rest? salarul minim stim ca e doar pe hartie si restul se ia la negru, si cine accepta salarul minim ori nu are educatie ori atata poate. deci pe bune, sunt satul de "patrioti" ca tine. Daca traiesti in asa o tara de cacat, emigreaza, faci un bine tuturor. Dar dupa aceea nu mai vb nimic de Romania!
@@fluxuleducatiei average monthly salary in Romania is around 800 Euros but yes, you can live with 300 Euro a month if you possess an apartment and not in winter when the heating costs are higher.
My parents are from Hungary I have always wanted to go wonder what it’s like to live there?
It would be great if you broke out the main costs (incl. health care/insurance) as well as the weather, so it is easier to compare the cost-of-living in each of these countries and how comfortable they are.
Not enough time to go into that depth for each country.. There's something called Google you can use to go more in depth. Ever heard of it?
I traveled all over Eastern Europe. I settled on Brest Belarus and Tirana Albania. They are both magificent and COL is insane. I lived 'upscale' in Brest for two years for $500 per month. Tirana is more expensive but a comfy life is about $700. The average SS for a worker and spouse is about $2,100 and you are upper middle class on that.
What was your apartment like? And what do yo mean by magnificent?
@@porkchopspapi5757 In Brest I had 70 m^2 1BR+Den overlooking the River Park and City Garden. It was an easy walk to the 1km long, broad shopping street with lots of cute cafes and restaurants. There are broad prospekts with statues and floral displays. The sidewalks are spectacular. There is a 1km 'river walk' with upscale restaurants overlooking the river and park. There's much more.
I have been trying to figure out Albania, so I have take short term rentals in Durres, Sarandë and Tiranë. I am going to Belgrade for three montns and when I return I will take a long term lease in Tiranë. Albania is a poor country, but 'Zone A" and 'Blloku' are going seriously upscale with a new, quickly growing upper middle class. Luxury high rises are popping up everywhere. About a 40 minute drive West brings you to Golem on the Adriatik. About 1 km of beach there is as good as any place on the Cote d'Azur. Only at ⅓ the price.

If I work in albania how much I can earn in month ? Any idea sir for general jobs.
Jithin George, Albania is no place to come and work. Your A/T income might be 400 Euro per month which will afford you a very basic lifestyle and likely require a roommate.
If you get a remote work contract, you can probably make $800 per month and, with a DN visa, shelter it from income tax. For that amount you can get by. My budget is $1,000 per month and I am living well.
I'm disappointed you didn't include my country, Slovenia... Everybody loves this place.
Is 1000$ per month enough to live there? And do they speak English?
Poland is so beautiful, I wish someday to visit the beautiful country. 😍
Yeah right with the corrupt judges no thx
Full of racists, homophobes, nationalists, catholic fanatics and so on… and people are just looking sad walking on the streets
hmm, that's sounds familiar!? Well duh! Every country has that, Even here in my country the Philippines has that.

Those countries in Europe are affordable to live for NOW .they were undeveloped countries when they were behind the iron curtain .eventually the cost of living will catch with them .And let’s be honest ,do you know what living in Georgia and Bulgaria is like???
Don't know what it's like to live there. Can you explain
Please elaborate.
@@rhalfik It´s simple, you just DON´T want to live there...
People there Do stupid Things, becouse the lack of money to live
There are nice places in Bulgaria. It's no coincidence that many western Europeans are moving there when they retire. I've never been in Georgia, but I am sure you can find nice places to live there. In fact I would rather live in Central/Eastern Europe (except for Ukraine and Moldova) than western Europe.
Amazing quality!
Serbia and Slovenia are my favorites.
I live in Bulgaria and it's a lot cheaper than you have said, come and see.
You did not mention the brutal winter weather on those area. Glim weather and a long winter months.
Where? In Slovakia you get normal winter but the summer is long and very hot.
They didnt talk about Russia ...In Prague we barelly get snow
Been to most of those countries,l found them all nice but, disappointed Lithuania wasn't mentioned.Have very happy memories and thank you very much for the video.
I lived in both Czec and Portugal. Prices okay but housing very expensive, and as an older woman on her own, people in both countries can be mean!
Thanks for sharing. very informative.

Education is free in most of Europe.
@@johnnymartinjohansen depends if you are domestic or international student.
Life is cheap if you get paid in Germany and live in one of those countries. So coming on vacation, if you are from England, Germany, Switzerland, ... is ok, but to live ... Well, people who live there would not leave those countries and go to the mentioned "expensive" countries.
How cheap is it to live in Germany
Well that depends.
I study and live in poland my monthly expenses as single lady is about five hundred dollar rent and Bills inclusive, though excluding personal care like visiting the spa and buying beauty stuff which you can do without some months...
Poland is still the cheapest place.
Are you an international student?

Sweet, I'm planning to move there, Katowice to be precise
@@MaryOdere me too, where are u going to? I'm going to Katowice

You need to consider safety and been part of EU or not as travelling might be an issue. Also the local salaries are low, so consider an outside income to be able to love properly.
Cheapest county to live is home !
You know everything and find the cheap one
Very true

Amazing videoⓂ
I love your videos!!!
Being able to live in Bulgaria with USD$1000 per month is certainly cheap, even when compared to some SEAsian countries. I'd certainly like to travel there and live for a few months
If you dont need a lot of sunshine beaches and companions, but why you still live if you dont have all these?

Well . I pay 50$ a month for my apartment in Africa which is very cool👍🇬🇭 maximum temperature of 30° 24/7🤪 i got anything to do in Europe thanks
Very good list
I love Budapest.
this needs to be updated ... Budapest has become quite expensive. It is cheaper to eat out in Italy, Spain or Germany, just to name some. Rent is also on the level of bigger German or Italian cities. And don't even think on making a comfortable "West European" living with the average pay in Hungary.
This funny, not even a chance for me 😂

Good morning like bro
So much for Ukraine being on this list…

Wow this is what i called unique video... Mmm.. Nice view...

I don't understand how living expenses of 1000-1500 dollars per month is Cheap??😳
By western standards yes its cheap. Currently i live on a monthly budget of roughly $2500.
Out of interest how much are your monthly expenses then and what country are you in? The only way to do it cheaper would be to rent a single room or something surely?
for locals, it's expensive.
Because wages are higher there
@@Jd10401 unless locals are living in shared accommodation I don't see how it can done much cheaper though.
Language barrier is a big problem.

You need to check out Armenia ... a fantastic beautiful country and wonderful friendlt people
No thanks. Not only is it landlocked but it isn't surrounded by great countries that people actually want to travel to. Way better choices in the video above. I've never heard one person in my life ever say they were going to or wanted to go to Armenia.
Help connect me there
@@spiegel3269 Bro you're rude, anybody told you that? Well i'll say it weirdly, but if you were a country, you would probably be like you described Armenia.
Not Europe. Also, I checked the rents. Super expensive
Is 1000$ per month enough to live there? And do they speak English? Because I am not going to learn Armenian

Where I work here in northern Norway, we have Polish and Latvian truck drivers delivering goods on a daily basis. Almost none of them can understand even the most basic English. I've also been to Poland twice, and language was most certainly a problem outside main tourist destinations, VERY hard to find anyone who speaks English. So no thanks, those two countries are not going to be considered should I ever retire to a foreign country.
If you want to speak with old people you are probably right. But from many years children have english at school from the first class.
Hi bro. Iam looking for a job in those countries. Iam from and I can speak English fluently. Any lead I wl appreciate.
If you want to speak English, move to England.
@@JabmarMusic If so, they doesn't seem to have learned much. Another example, I have several more: I was driving from Wroclav to Prague, and while still on the Polish side of the border, I stopped at a cozy taverna, to get something to eat. There were at least 4 young adults working there, that couldn't understand English at all, so I had to use google translate on my phone to tell them what I wanted. So no, it doesn't only apply to old people. And btw, the drivers coming to my workplace, are mostly in their 30s, and they almost never understands English, as I already said.
@@Utubedeletescomments No, England wouldn't be on my list, if I should ever retire to a different country. There are MANY countries where communicating in English isn't a problem at all.
Good night brother
Georgia (country/The gate of Europe) can be also mentioned here.
i like slovakia, czech republic, poland , hungary. latvia
others not
Turkey sucks not even a loaf of bread is cheap it’s expensive and the overall system here sucks health care as well
So beautiful
Turkey doesn’t fall here as much I experienced and heard a huge amount of people don’t know how to behave to tourists and are so religious .!

What are the courses, qualities, eligibility, qualifications to work in these countries?
Those places become more expensive as westerners come and live like Kings with their salaries in dollars. Sickening to hear westerners say that x place is crazy cheap when they are comparing the prices with those back home. I am French but always lived in poor conditions wherever I lived in Europe, according to the local salary. I can tell that unless you earn a lot of euros and dollars, and earn local money, no place is cheap at all.
in Europe is minimaly 5 more countries witch is more cheaper than slovakia and estonia
and to live comfortably?
Si, Sardegna
Interesting
Northren Turkey and Ankara is cold in winter but warm in summer ...
