Where to go?

There are several factors that determine if a country is welcoming to American expats. Things to consider include the visa options, the cost of living, language, cultural openness, a solid expat community, opportunities for work or education, infrastructure, safety, and natural landscapes. Therefore, the Expatsi Report 2024 annually ranks the best countries to live based on data from over 116,000 Americans. (Keep in mind: Europe tends to dominate the list because of factors like language, strong infrastructure, social policies, weather, and safety, according to Forbes.)
