I find it fascinating to compare average after tax salary with the cost of renting a one bedroom apartment in different places. In many places it does not seem possible for a single person on an average salary to rent a one bedroom flat and this includes in Faro. Rents are out of all proportion to people’s means. It is such a shame.
