Péhonko, Benin

With just over 37,000 residents, Péhonko is a small provincial town that offers little to attract the average expat. The bureaucracy is a persistent headache, and the remote location means access to modern amenities is limited. While the local culture may intrigue the intrepid adventurer, the tradeoffs of living in Péhonko are likely too high for most foreigners seeking a comfortable life abroad.
