The EU/Schengen countries granted residence permits to a total of 76,221 American citizens last year, according to data published by the EU's statistics agency, Eurostat, according to EU Helpers.

According to data, France, Spain, and Germany gave the most residence permits to Americans in 2022 out of all the countries, indicating that many Americans went to these three nations last year.

In 2022, 12,220 Americans received residence permits from France. This indicates that more Americans than residents of any other EU/Schengen country choose to relocate to France.

Following France are Germany (9,367) and Spain (11,156), both of which last year gave American citizens permission to live there. These numbers show that Americans are particularly fond of these two nations.
