About these cities
About Khouribga
Khouribga is a cheap place to live and not much else. A 1-bedroom in the center runs $151/mo and a 3-bedroom outside it just $196/mo, yet the average local net salary is $325/mo, so the low cost of living index of 32/100 reflects low incomes rather than opportunity. Healthcare is poor, English is limited, there is no expat community, and the crime index of 55/100 is not reassuring. Come only if you are a remote worker earning abroad and want to bank most of it, and even then the 20 Mbps internet and 45°C summers will test you.
About Morocco
A digital nomad visa exists and low English proficiency rule out remote workers wanting easy setup. Budget retirees willing to navigate a complex, unranked-income Carte de Sejour process get real value: $375/mo rents a city-center 1BR, and healthcare access includes English-speaking doctors despite a middling 46.8 index.

About Martil
Martil is one of the cheapest coastal towns you can park yourself in, with a 1-bedroom in the center at $251/mo and a single adult scraping by on $325/mo. The catch is the expat scene: there is none, so you are trading community for a 96-thousand-person town where English is common only in tourist areas. The 83/100 overall expat score and 85/100 FIRE score tell you this is a money-saving play, not a social one, and the retiree and digital nomad scores of 63/100 confirm it. Come for the $3 restaurant meals and 5 km hop to TTU, stay if you can handle being the only foreigner on your block.
