If you want peace & quiet, then don't live in a city. A country needs money, it is what it is. It is not unique to Portugal in any way; people move to cities in droves; Amsterdam, Berlin, Melbourne (I lived in all 3) and then start complaining that they don't want noise but peace & quiet. Why, in the good lords name would you live in a city in that case? And in Germany and Portugal (ah and Sweden by the way) you can live nice and cheap in nature and have all the rest you want, why do you need to make it worse for people who don't enjoy that and live in a city for the excitement?
