An Expat Talks about Moving to The Algarve, Portugal

What is the name of the city or town that you are reporting on?

The Algarve

What advice would you give someone preparing to move to your area about the actual move, choosing a neighborhood and finding a home?

I would come here in the summer before you move. It is over flooded with tourists. I live in Albufeira and travel in the summer. While Albufeira has a reputation as a party town, it is limited to two areas. The quality of life is very high, it empties out quite a bit in the winter but plenty is left open.
