People are trying to avoid health care costs and housing costs.
And also, I think people are just hungry for something different, some different way of living.
So here's what's really interesting.
America, we conceive of our country as one of immigration to such a degree that our government doesn't keep statistics on the number of Americans who leave.
In fact, if you go to the State Department and ask, how many Americans live abroad?
You get like this, I don't know, it's like the numbers anywhere from 4 million to 9 million.
It's all over the map.
People tend to read this politically.
And you've got some commentators that have labeled this wave of American immigrants the, quote, Donald Dash, since the numbers have really just risen under President Trump's second term.
But what we find is this is a phenomenon that's been building for years.
Trump's reelection, like, yes, that was a factor for many, but for others not.
And there's plenty of expats who voted for him.
There's something as a deeper structural shift that's causing this.
So the number of Americans living in Portugal has jumped five-fold since the COVID pandemic.
In 2024, it grew by 36%, just that year.
In the past 10 years, the number of Americans residing in Spain has doubled, the same in the Netherlands.
It's more than doubled in the Czech Republic.
And people say, oh, well, that's because we live in a time of immigration.
People move wherever they want.
It's not true the other way.
