If you have a child it is more complicated than that. You need starting money to be able to move.

    If you had a job that could sustain you and you get a new job within EU that can also sustain you, it's about as expensive as you would expect a long distance move to be. There's no system in place as far as I know to block you from getting permanent residency in another EU country because you don't have starting money. That's just your inherent responsability to figure out like with any move.

    EU countries are allowed to, by Treaty, expel EU citizens who moved there without the means to live there or a job.

    However it's incredibly rare and there really isn't any general procedure to do it: each country does it (or not) it's own way. This tends to be used for people caught sleeping or begging on the streets.

    Further, for countries in the Schengen Area, they don't even know you're there unless you register, since you haven't passed any border controls and thus aren't in any database as having arrived but not departed.

    We are in complete agreement. Like I said if you get a job in another EU country there's nothing stopping you from getting permanent residency there as well. The discussion was about moving with kids, which is the parents responsibility to figure out when it comes to cost and feasibility, but the EU will not stop them and does not impose additional barriers just because one has kids.
