Cost of Living Overseas

On staying or living in other countries, advice can be found on many expat forums. One I found informative is Expat Exchange. Also, found in International Living, the website Numbeo has a global cost-of-living guide which is very helpful when looking for a place to settle.
On the healthcare side, there are a few indices that rank healthcare quality and each uses different criteria. The WHO rankings are based on quality and overall efficiency. For 2021 the WHO ranks France #1, Italy #2, Malta #5, Spain #7, and Portugal #12 in its world ranking (by comparison Canada is ranked 30th and the U.S. 37th). CEO World bases their ranking more strictly on the quality of healthcare. They rank, from 1 to 10, South Korea, Taiwan, Denmark, Austria, Japan, Australia, France, Spain, and Belgium.
