In Belarus, you can. Many people do. However, apartment rent in Minsk starts from 200 euro...

You can in Malta

Rent for a 1 bedroom flat is possible as low as 200 Euro a month, there is no mains gas here so only water & electricity to pay, no council tax or rates to pay. Cost of living is cheap here too, well much cheaper than the UK... Wages are quite low here, but obviously depends on what job/experience you want/have...

Portugal, a lot of people have that salary.
It's not much for Lisbon, or Algarve in the summer, but fine for the rest of the country

Really, are salaries in Portugal that low? What's the average one?

I have a friend who claims that he easily lives on 600 euros a month in Vienna (sharing apartment with a girlfriend) and also goes out quite often. Apartments in the Netherlands can also be quite cheap if youre under 24 and qualify for the renting subsidy, its possible to get an apartment 200 including the service costs in a small-medium sized city.
