Wow. I read through those. It seems like actually moving to and living in Europe would be a very difficult task. I think you'd have a lot better luck coming from Europe to the US from how I've seen it work with international students at my college.
It also seems as though Europe is very static. It's already built, established, and exists the way that it's going to be. There seems to be no frontier and less opportunity (though less risk) than being in the US.
It's not actually that hard to move to Europe. I did it and I am nothing special. It's mostly straightforward and if you follow the rules it is easy. Of course "Europe" is many different countries and some are easier than others.
It's much easier than legally moving to the United States, which is an opaque, arbitrary nightmare of a process.
Europe is hardly static. Some of the countries didn't even exist 20 years ago. It's a 500M person market with huge amounts of immigration and constant change. In contrast, parts of the USA have changed little since the Civil War.

Well that's good news to hear! It looks like if you can get the job and language aspects down, that's most of the hurdles.
As far as house prices, they don't seem that unreasonable if your not in the huge cities like Paris. A bit more expensive than the U.S. But then again many houses are made out of stone and are historical.

You can go to school just about anywhrere in the world including the US as long as you have passable grades and enough money. The fun part starts after graduation.
Where is there a frontier in the US where you do not have to face USCIS? Considerably easier in most of Europe.
You might like to read at some expat forums for people who did this or wanting to do this see Expat Forum For People Moving Overseas And Expats Living Abroad | ExpatForum.com
If you go live there as an expat via the company you work for many things are arranged by them. If you go on your own independent you have to do everything yourself, find house, move your stuff overseas, arrange all the paperwork, get a job etc. If you have a country or countries you are thinking about, you might get answers suitable to that country.
I've lost count of the lovely places I've been lucky enough to have been to in Europe.
