Hi all

What is the current cost of living the Algarve? Making plans to leave my job and live most of the year in Portugal so want to know what it costs on average per month to live modestly. I don't mean bills but just living in general. I'm not old enough to retire so would be living off savings.

Thanks in advance.

I recently found this useful website

Prices do vary around the region and tend to be higher in some tourist oriented areas.

Things to take into account also are things like council tax if you own a property (much, much less than in UK), condominium management fees and healthcare insurance.
