My husband and I are considering retiring in Portugal so we will begin the process of applying for residency visas. We will be in Portugal in May to try to find areas we would like to settle in. Can anyone can let us know if there are any nice areas outside of Lisbon that are nice areas to live. We would consider all areas outside of city center and beyond. Our criteria is this:
We will be renting long term
We have two dogs who are coming with us.
We would like to have access to public transportation that goes into Lisbon and Lisbon airport.
We would like to be close to the sea but do not necessarily have to be in the beach town if it is too expensive.
Thank you for your time,
LH
