ARCHIVED - Spain ranks second among the most searched EU countries by Americans looking to move abroad
What were this year’s the most desired European countries by Americans to live in?

US citizens frequently look towards Spain as an EU destination to live in or retire to as expatriates, but its position as favourite has been stolen by Portugal this year, according to research blog about moving, living and retiring abroad mydolcecasa.com.
The analysis of Google data confirms that Spain was the second most searched European country by Americans interested in moving abroad, surpassed only by Portugal.
To create the ranking, they analysed how many monthly Google searches were performed in the US including queries like “moving to”, “living in”, “retiring in” and checked which of 27 European Union countries they were referring to.

But just behind was Spain, taking second position as the second most popular place for Americans looking to move abroad, with 38,900 average monthly searches in 2022. This pushes Spain down off its top spot after ranking first in 2021.
Third was Germany with 15,300 monthly searches and fourth place went to Ireland, managing to surpass both Italy and France, with 11,700 searches per month.
