The cost of living in Morocco is considered moderate when compared to Western countries. Essentials such as food, housing, and transportation are generally affordable, but prices can vary depending on the region and proximity to major cities.

Morocco has a diverse climate that varies with the region. Coastal areas have a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. Inland areas, especially in the Atlas Mountains, experience more extreme temperatures with cold winters and very hot summers. The Sahara region is arid and can reach extreme temperatures during the day.

The educational system in Morocco is a mix of public, private, and international schools, catering to the diverse needs of its population. Education in Morocco is compulsory through to age 15, which includes primary and middle school. The education system is structured as follows: pre-school for ages 4-6, primary school for ages 6-12, which is divided into six grades, middle school for ages 12-15, which is divided into three grades, and secondary school for ages 15-18, which is also divided into three grades. The school year in Morocco typically starts in September and ends in June. Public education is free, though there are costs associated with books and uniforms. The quality of education varies, with urban schools generally providing a better quality of education than rural areas. French is often used as the language of instruction, particularly in secondary schools and higher education, which can be a challenge for students and families not fluent in the language. After completing middle school, students must pass a national exam to enter secondary school, where they can choose between general education and technical streams. At the end of secondary school, students take the baccalauréat exam, which determines their eligibility for university admission.

The healthcare system in Morocco is a mix of public and private services. The public healthcare system is accessible to all citizens and legal residents, including expatriates who are employed and contribute to the Moroccan social security system, CNSS. However, the quality of public healthcare can vary significantly, with urban areas typically having better facilities and more resources than rural areas. Private healthcare in Morocco is known for providing higher quality services with more modern facilities and shorter waiting times, but it comes at a higher cost. Expats and digital nomads can access public healthcare once they are registered with the CNSS, which usually requires having a work contract or setting up a business in Morocco. Many expats and digital nomads opt for private health insurance to cover private healthcare costs, which provides them with a wider range of healthcare options and often higher quality care.
