Portugal Ranks 2nd in 2024 Global Retirement Index

Portugal secures second place in the 2024 Global Retirement Index, after Costa Rica, due to its charming culture, year-round sun, and safety. With a surge of retirees and high skilled expats, the foreign population has doubled in the past decade to over 800,000.

The country offers attractive visa programs for non-EU citizens including the Golden Visa and D7 Retirement Visa, both contributing to the economy and boosting employment.

Portugal appeals as a lower-cost European destination with high living standards, lush landscapes, and access to the Schengen Area, making it a popular choice among affluent retirees.

My Take…

Personally I would take Portugal over Costa Rica.

That said, we all have different priorities, resources etc.
