Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Lisbon accepting of differences?

When we asked people about diversity in Lisbon and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...

"Lisbon is a diverse city, with people from many different backgrounds and cultures living and working together. The city is known for its acceptance of differences, and people from all walks of life are welcomed and respected. Lisbon is a vibrant and open-minded city, and its citizens are proud of its diversity," remarked another expat in Lisbon, Portugal.

"Lisbon is remarkably diverse. The area of intendente itself is home to 87 nationalities! Portuguese are very friendly people and accepting of all people from every background. There is a little India area, little Chinatown, African cafes, Nepalese restaurants and also lots of options for vegan and vegetarian people," said a member in Lisbon, Portugal.
