The Amadora Municipality in Portugal is delivering the keys to 48 public housing units to local families this Saturday.
These homes are located in the Cerrado da Mira development in the Mina de Água parish and feature 46 one-bedroom apartments and two two-bedroom apartments. The project received full funding from the Plano de Recuperação e Resiliência. Mayor Vítor Ferreira stated that the municipality received nearly 500 applications for the units and spent two months selecting the final residents.
The new homes will house 56 people, including 15 residents under the age of 30. The average monthly rent for these units is 463 euros. This price includes a 20% discount provided by the municipality under an affordable rental regime. The selection process ensured that the rent does not exceed 35% of the monthly income of the selected families. The municipality is also developing a project to sell over 95 housing units at controlled costs by the end of 2027.
