15 Best Places to Retire Abroad
12. Peloponesse, Greece
Like Belize, Greece is a place to retire if you are looking for someplace calm and relaxed. The weather here is mild all year-round and people are generally friendly and welcoming. Peloponesse is the place with the highest concentration of archeological sites in the world, meaning you will have plenty of places to explore. And if you are not the biggest fan of history, the region’s beaches will take your breath away. The coast of Peloponesse seems endless. And even though the country is still in an economic crisis, it continues to offer a relaxed way of life for all people choosing to make Greece their home.
In Greece, your savings will go much further than if you stayed in the United States. Keep in mind, however, that in order to live in Greece you will need to get a residence permit, obtained by providing proof that you have an independent income of at least 2,000 euros per month.
