I think it depends on where you want to live in Accra as rents will vary but you should get something for $300-500 per month.
The same sort of transport that is available in Lagos is available in Ghana. Trotros are cheap and taxis are reasonable. There are buses if you happen to live on a bus route. Security is good. There are problems but if you take precautions then you will keep safe. I think it is a lot safer than Lagos

Are you hoping to get a job first? I suggest you look at some of the private hospitals in Ghana and see if there are any openings in your field. Maybe you will get accommodation with your job.
Good luck
