Missérété, Benin

With a population of just 41,657, Missérété is a small city in Benin that offers little to attract expats beyond a quiet, provincial lifestyle. The bureaucracy in this part of the country is a persistent headache, with a Byzantine system of arrondissements, cantons, and prefectures left over from colonial rule. Locals may appreciate the tranquility, but for those seeking urban amenities or a robust expat community, Missérété is unlikely to satisfy.
