Ireland offers up to $92,000 to live on remote islands.
The Irish government is offering grants of up to $92,000 to homebuyers who are willing to move to more than two dozen remote islands in the Atlantic Ocean. The plan is part of a 10-year initiative to boost the population of these islands, which have seen a decline in residents over the past two decades. The grants are available for renovating derelict or vacant properties on the islands, but there are specific criteria for eligibility. Americans can buy properties in Ireland, but it doesn't automatically give them the right to reside in the country.
