Cost of living: Lisbon vs Porto for remote workers?

First_Class_FionaOPFeb 2

Moving to Portugal but can't decide between Lisbon and Porto. How do the living costs compare for a single person?

Porto is generally 15-20% cheaper than Lisbon, especially for rent. Check Borderly's comparison for the exact breakdown.

Lisbon has a bigger tech scene but Porto's quality of life is amazing for the price. Borderly shows both scores.

I used Borderly to compare grocery and dining costs - Porto wins on local tascas, Lisbon has more international variety.

Check the 'Housing' section on Borderly for both cities. It shows current market averages for 1BR apartments.
