Why Americans Are Moving To Portugal

If you’re an American considering a move to Portugal, you’re not alone. In recent years, an increasing number of Americans have been relocating to this sunny European country, drawn by its warm climate, stunning scenery, friendly people, and low cost of living.

Here are just a few of the reasons why you should consider making the move to Portugal:

The Weather is Perfect

If you’re sick of shoveling snow and dealing with frigid temperatures, Portugal is the perfect place to relocate. The country enjoys a temperate climate, with average temperatures ranging from 68-74 degrees Fahrenheit. And even in the winter months, temperatures rarely dip below 50 degrees.

You’ll Never tire of the scenery

Portugal is a country of stunning natural beauty. From the rolling hills of the Alentejo region to the dramatic cliffs of the Algarve, there is always something new to explore. And of course, there are the country’s famed beaches, which are perfect for relaxing, swimming, and surfing.

Not Politically Charged

Portugal is considered one of the safest countries in the world which means people tend to be more relaxed in general.  While you can always find someone to argue with if you look hard enough, the art of the debate is still alive and well in Portugal where you can talk about subjects without needing safe spaces to protect people from their feelings.

The People are Friendly and Welcoming

One of the best things about Portugal is the friendly and welcoming nature of the Portuguese people. They are known for their relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle and their hospitality towards foreigners. You’ll quickly feel at home in Portugal.

It’s Affordable

Compared to other Western European countries, Portugal is very affordable. You can easily find affordable accommodation, food, and transportation. And Portugal’s low cost of living makes it a great place to retire or work remotely.

There’s so Much to Do

Portugal is a country with a rich history and culture. There are plenty of things to see and do, from exploring medieval castles to sampling the country’s delicious food and wine. And Portugal’s vibrant cities, such as Lisbon and Porto, are always buzzing with activity.

Where to Live

Regarding where to live,  Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, is a great city for Americans to live in. It is a vibrant city with a lot to offer in terms of culture, nightlife, and dining. The cost of living in Lisbon is also very reasonable, especially when compared to other major European cities.

Another city in Portugal that Americans should consider is Porto. Porto is Portugal’s second largest city and is known for its stunning architecture, friendly people, and delicious wine. The cost of living in Porto is slightly higher than Lisbon but is still very affordable.

If you are looking for a smaller city to live in, Coimbra might be a good option. Coimbra is a university city with a lively atmosphere. It is also very affordable, making it a great option for Americans who want to live in Portugal on a budget.

For those who love the beaches and sunny weather, the Algarve has no comparison.  With 300+ days of sunshine a year, more golf courses than you can imagine, and some of the most pristine beaches in the world.  The Algarve is very chilled compared to the rest of the country which makes it one of the best destinations for retirees and those wanting to get away from the rat race.

Overall, Portugal is a great country for Americans to live in. There are many beautiful and affordable cities to choose from, and the people are friendly and welcoming. If you are looking for a new place to call home, Portugal should definitely be at the top of your list.  So, if you’re thinking of relocating to Portugal, don’t hesitate. You’ll fall in love with the country’s weather, scenery, people, and way of life.
