How many people from Greece live in Europe?

According to the United Nations, 439,000 people from Greece live in Europe.

In total, 749,000 people from Greece live abroad, and about 59% of them live in Europe.

However, the figure counts migrants, not their children born here. The real community is therefore larger.

Where to meet people from Greece in Europe

No community for people from Greece exists in Europe on Compatri yet. However, one first member is enough to open one in their city.

As soon as a community starts, its meetups show up on the events page, with the date, the venue and the number of attendees.

Joining the Greece community in Europe

Compatri brings diasporas together where they live. First, you choose the community of your city. Then you discover what its members organise: meals, parties, afterworks or mutual aid. Finally, you message compatriots who share your interests.

You can also host your own meetup: a meal, an outing or a party. It then appears to members of your city, and you follow sign-ups from your account.

Your exact location never appears: other members only see an approximate area. In addition, joining a community and attending events costs nothing.

The Greece diaspora elsewhere in the world

Elsewhere, the Greece diaspora also lives in the United States, Australia, and Canada. Each country has its own page, with its cities and meetups.
