Migrants aren't even stopping in any of the southern European countries. They are heading to the "wealthier" countries in Northern Europe and Western Europe, these countries of course have better social systems in place than "bankrupt" Spain.
So this thread makes no sense.
Spain has great weather, cheap housing costs, decent food or you can grow decent food, great access to a lot of different countries, decent looking women and a relaxed culture.
Now for the joker that mentioned Canada, cold weather, high housing costs, average food, great access to the USA and beyond that you have to pay a pretty penny, the women has been well documented and the culture is stressful.
I also think Spain would be one of the places where I'd escape too.
Muslims there seem also to be more modest than Muslims in more northern European countries, I've always wondered how that came, I figured maybe because of the more visible catholic presence and perhaps because of a good relationship with Morocco.
It has, as a country, many advantages.
A serious disadvantage is that the population will get old fast, more so than most other European countries. Very few children are born there, so to raise a family it's probably not the best place. I've had a lot of fun with girls in Spain, though, both Spanish and Latin American.
Housing is very cheap, too. Great place to work if you have 'location independent' income.
