Ireland
Ireland offers up to $87 000 (about 43.5 million tenge) in grants for those who are ready to move to one of 30 coastal islands and renovate an abandoned house there. These islands, with a total population of about 3 000 people, need an influx of young people and professionals, especially digital nomads.
The program includes a commitment to live in a renovated home for at least ten years. The Irish government is actively developing infrastructure on the islands, improving transport, internet and health care.

However, you will have to live in the village for at least ten years and go through a rigorous citizenship process.

Spain
The small town of Ponga in Asturias in northern Spain is ready to pay $3 200 (about 1.6 million tenge) for each new resident, plus the same amount for each child. This region, known for its stunning nature and wine production, is ideal for those who want to live in harmony with nature.
