About Barcelona
Over 300,000 expats already call Barcelona home, making it one of Europe's easiest cities for newcomers to land in. Beach, mountains, and world-class architecture are all within reach, and the food scene rivals any European capital. Be aware that Catalan is the primary language (not Spanish), housing has gotten very expensive, and the city has cracked down on tourist apartments.

What American expats need to know about Spain
Visa
Digital Nomad Visa — requires remote work for a non-Spanish company (3+ months tenure), min ~€2,850/mo income, and a degree or 3 years experience. Valid 1 year, up to 3 years. Special 24% flat tax rate. Non-Lucrative Visa suits retirees and those with passive income (€28,800/yr, no work allowed).
Cost of Living
30-50% less than US major cities. A comfortable life in Valencia or Málaga runs €1,500-2,200/mo. Madrid/Barcelona are pricier but still well below NYC.
