Xghajra, Malta

With a population of just 3,712, Xghajra is a sleepy coastal village that offers little in the way of excitement or amenities. The local football club, Xghajra Tornadoes F.C., is about the most notable thing going on. Bureaucratic headaches are a persistent issue, as evidenced by the village's complicated local council structure with members from both the Labor Party and independents. While Xghajra does have a handful of designated zones and roads, including one named after a 17th century Grand Master, the overall vibe is decidedly small-town and unassuming. This is a place for those seeking a quiet, uneventful life by the Mediterranean - not for the adventurous or ambitious.
