Tunisia

This is the least expensive African country.

Rents are 94 percent cheaper compared to a place like New York, while consumer goods are also cheaper, making it a less expensive place to live in.

Exports, foreign investment and tourism are key to the country’s economy. Its major exports include food products, textiles and apparel, petroleum products, chemicals, and phosphates.

This, in addition to investments in education and infrastructure, powered decades of 4-5% annual GDP growth and improved living standards.
