Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. There is a reason why many big Valley companies are setting up expansions here and why a huge chunk of engineers in the Valley are from the University of Waterloo. A big thriving startup community with a good culture and lots of smart folks around, very easy to get integrated and to get support.
It's not as cheap as moving to a 3rd world country or some random places in the States or Canada, but it's fairly reasonable, tons of smart people and activity and you are within a 1.5hr driving radius of Toronto, Niagara Falls, Hamilton, London, Guelph and most of the big SW Ontario places. Cheap flights to go anywhere in the world often popup from Toronto or Hamilton, so that's a bonus if you like to travel.
Again, this isn't comparable to moving to Portugal or the like, which is an awesome place by the way, but if you want Canada, it's a good choice for getting a lot without the prices of Toronto, which is one of the top 6 most expensive cities in the world.
