What do people like (and dislike) about Porto?
When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Porto, they replied...
"Porto is a great city in which to live. Some of the best food and drink in the world can be had here for a fraction of the cost in the states. Generally speaking everything is less expensive and better than in the US. Healthcare is superior and comes at a fraction of the cost of same in the states. The handling of the pandemic was also superior to that of most countries. We feel safe and thankful to be here. Portugal is a magnificent country and we would happily spend the rest of our lives exploring it. The only downside to living in Porto is the rainy season which runs roughly from November through March-April. It was unseasonably cold this past winter and our electric bills were quite high as a result. Other than that, it is one of the best possible places to live," explained one expat living in Porto, Portugal.
