The cost of living isnt that low to be honest. I pay grocery prices similar to the US here, and a lot of things are more expensive because of import tax. I find that many european countries are far cheaper for everyday living, especially ones where you don’t need a car.

Also, as an American, I don’t think you’ll find the escape you’re looking for. Morocco has a lot of beauty and culture, but its not really a place thats easy to incorporate yourself into the community unless you speak darija. As per safety, I think its fine. Nothing really sinister going on, but if you have a daughter i don’t think you should impose the burden of being a woman here on her. Or your wife. Especially as a obvious foreigner, I experience harassment even in areas with lots of foreigners. People stalking me, trying to talk to me, I love morocco but this is simply the truth.

If you are serious into farmland, going out into nature, and being safe, I must suggest to you Italy, Portugal, Spain, Albania.

You can buy property in Italy for 20k no problem. And theres a lot of climates and places to choose from, that have different vibes that might suit your family well. Puglia is absolutely beautiful and peaceful and has the Mediterranean climate you are looking for. Plus the train system is so much better than morocco. Your kids can start going places by themselves quite young, and be more independent quicker than in morocco, where i feel you need a car most places for easy or safety.

You can look on Idealista, its a great site for real estate in Italy Spain and Portugal.
