You might look into the magazine, International living. They used to have reasonable information in their articles. I did a 6 month trial and that was enough to give you a starting base to look further. Another source of information is from the county's website. You can see if there are expat groups in the countries of interest, they may be of some use.

If anyone is interested in Germany or just our experiences PM.
