Advantages of the top 5
1. Panama
The first of 46 countries included in the survey, Panama ranked high on indicators including working conditions abroad and ease of settling in. Popular with freelancers, digital nomads and retirees, Panama attracts people who appreciate its natural beauty. However, bureaucracy can be a challenge and hiring professional help, such as lawyers, can be very helpful in any case. Even renewing vehicle registration plates can require complex bureaucratic procedures.
2. Colombia
Second overall, Colombia ranked particularly high in the categories of expats’ personal financial situation and ease of settling in. The lower cost of living also had a significant impact, with almost four in five expats saying they were satisfied. 80% felt “at home” and described it as a place of opportunity.
3. Mexico
Mexico comes in third, its ranking supported by its culture. Foreigners living there report feeling welcome at a rate 20% higher than the global average and say it’s easy to make connections. They enjoy the people, culture, food, beauty, low cost of living, and healthcare. The country offers reliable internet connections, which makes remote work easier and has attracted more digital nomads in recent years.
4. Thailand
Thailand ranked 4th, with particularly high scores in the categories of “Overall Happiness” (2nd place) and “Personal Finances” (3rd place). Survey participants noted that they found their relocation easy. Highlighting the friendliness of the locals, some commented that they did not believe there was another country as welcoming.
5. Vietnam
Vietnam rounds out the top five, ranking first in the Personal Finance Index and eighth in the Overall Happiness Index. It is one of the fastest-growing economies in the world.
