We Chose Portugal over Spain, France, and Italy. 2 Years Later, Do We REGRET It?

📨 SIGN UP FOR OUR FREE WEEKLY NEWSLETTER → https://www.theunretirees.com/subscribe Two and a half years ago, we made the decision to move to Portugal instead of moving to Spain, moving to France, or moving to Italy. Like many people researching life abroad, we were comparing safety, healthcare, cost of living, climate, and long-term residency options across Southern and Western Europe. At the time, Portugal seemed like the best country to move to in Europe. The healthcare system was strong, the country felt exceptionally safe, the cost of living was lower than much of the U.S., and Portugal offered a relatively clear path to residency and citizenship. A lot has changed since then. Portugal’s NHR tax program for expats has ended for new applicants, housing prices in Portugal have increased, and the pathway to Portuguese citizenship may change. These shifts raise an important question for anyone considering a move abroad today: knowing what we know now, would we still choose Portugal over Spain, France, or Italy? In this video, we compare Portugal vs Spain vs France vs Italy based on our real-world experience living in Europe for more than two years. We also share how our priorities have changed since moving abroad, and how those changes would affect our decision if we were starting over today. We cover: What mattered most to us when choosing a country to move abroad Living in Portugal as expats after 50 Portugal cost of living, safety, and healthcare compared to Spain, France, and Italy Why we ruled out Spain, France, and Italy at the time How residency, citizenship timelines, and tax policy affect long-term planning The one European country we would seriously consider today that wasn’t on our radar before This video is especially relevant if you’re: Researching moving to Portugal from the U.S. Comparing Portugal vs Spain for expats Considering living in Italy or France after retirement Looking for the best European country to move to after 50 Planning a move to Europe that balances lifestyle, healthcare, and long-term stability Hi, we’re Matt and Dawn.
