How do I find a place to live in Morocco?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Morocco is to use online resources such as websites and social media. Websites such as Airbnb, Expat.com, and EasyRoommate are great for finding short-term and long-term rentals. Additionally, social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter can be used to search for rental postings from locals. Additionally, it is possible to find a place to live by asking around in the local community. Many people in Morocco are willing to help newcomers find a place to live, and asking around can be a great way to find a place to stay," wrote a member who made the move to Morocco.

"Very difficult and expensive to rent here if you want a pool and garden, we ended up buying a villa. We found our home on the internet and by asking local people about what was for sale in the area," explained one expat living in Marrakech, Morocco.
