Nice video thanks! One thing you overlook, though. While it may be true that the cost of living is low in some places, the visa requirements for residence are not…re: Spain
Cadiz is very crowded because it is small, Jerez and Sanlucar are better but expensive, Tarifa is very windy and only good for windsurfing, the other places are dirty, without services nor hospitals and third world kind.
also, @Skerry Harry, why don't you ask a local how to pronounce the cities you're highlighting? you sound like a fool. Mont PEE lee er? ummmm NO!! it's Mon-peh-liEh – also, Ha-knee-uh? NO!! It's Ha-niA. Do some research man
What currency are you using?
What currency are you quoting btw?
What currency are u referring to?
Appalling pronouncation of the names of the cities.
You would never ever know the situation unless you live in that particular city/town . That’s all that’s it .
Amazing cause I always love Mediterenean Sea – have taken many trips around, specially Nice in France. Will be there again for visitng a good french friend too on 30 september. Lots of Swedish retired people live there since 1980. I am considering seriously to retire in one of countries around Mediterenean. But still have my Stockholm Apratment as well. (For easier to visit my swedish friends and my swedish family) 😍😇 Thanks a lot for sharing.😀

Oh dear, Turkey. You actually advice Turkey, only for a vacation but to live? Really?
Greece has the lowest "Golden Visa" program in the EU at only Euro 250,000. If I had to retire in Europe, I would definitely stick to EU countries for stability and because you can establish residency and obtain an EU passport.
It would be nice to say what is the currency of those prices. I assume it is the USD.
Mon – pilleier??

It's very hard to take a video seriously when the producers cannot bother to find out how to pronounce the name of the towns correctly.
Turkey offers the most in my opinion. Great people, nice food and so much things to do and see
Video doesn't address residency visa/permit requirements. Also, no discussion about taxes. The choices are good. But, don't start packing until you research if you qualify for residency & the tax rate. Typical Global Income Taxation (GIT) is 35% to 40% of all gross income including pensions and Social Security income.
It’s not “shibanik”, it’s SHIBENIK!
Funny. I was born in Bari, grew up there and then left..
the med starts at gibraltar!!! do u know your geography?
Vlora views, that are used here, are at least 5 years old. Meanwhile the city has gone through a dramatic change for the better. More change is coming soon, with an intercontinental airport being build right now, a marina and a commercial port to be build shortly. Everything is progressively improving at a fast pace. Lucky who gets in now at these prices as it has the potential to get much more expensive once all the investments have completed.
In what currency is the cost of living, rent etc. measured?
As beautiful as the Med is, and culturally rich and diverse, it suffers a problem with high humidity in many areas. The nearby Atlantic coasts of southwest Portugal, northwest Spain, Morocco and the Canaries generally possess more pleasantly dry climates (and cooler water temperatures which give firmer textured fish) – and also have an abundance of “affordable” destinations.
Been to Montpellier. The city is not technically on the Mediterranean. It’s a little inland. But a beautiful city nonetheless
Great video!
You should include the minimum and maximum temperatures of a location and the prices at the grocery store . For example the price of a litre H-Milk at a given time.
Great video as always. I would love to move to one of these places, love the small city./ town life.
Any of these would be great but living on soc src.most international cities don't like you to move unless you are in some kind of business
👍 .
Nice video! Would like to hear about a few other smaller/quaint towns in Turkey and Croatia that are affordable 👍
Cadiz, unlike Spain itself, does NOT touch on the Mediterranean. It might be a cheap place to live, but it is NOT on the Med, only the Atlantic. Tarifa is on the absolute outer edge of what can be called The Med. It is on the Straits of Gibraltar, or at the westernmost point of it in Spain. I'd still say that was not, The Med.
cadiz is NOT bathed by the atlantic and the med. Its outside the strait of Gibralter, its north atlantic.
Awesome places and prices
I wish I could live there this minute.
i got inspired by your the view, it's very Beautiful and amazing,nice video, i like it, your share it's beautiful
