As an alternative, I'd recommend trying to live in places in Asia like Hong Kong or Japan. Walkable cities, relatively low tax rate (but not sure how it works with US citizens tax system), higher salaries than Europe (in the case of Hong Kong, Japan really depends although CS salaries have increased quite a bit lately).
You can also be a digital nomad while living in those places. Japan has a special visa IIRC, with HK you can just use the 3 months tourist visa and do hops to other countries (I know quite a few people who have done that for years)
