Activity
Aveiro, as a leading city of a region, assumes itself as a structuring territory in the consolidation of the regional urban system that is both cohesive, competitive and wealth generator.
Currently with a population of 78,450 inhabitants, the city of Aveiro recorded in the last decade, a significant increase from the same (7%) when compared with the Central Region (-1%) and nationally (1%), largely due to the presence of a strong business sector capable of giving business opportunities, employment and, consequently, greater purchasing power.
The power of purchase, higher to the national average, turns Aveiro into one of the most attractive cities to live, study or invest. With a prime location between mountains and sea, Aveiro also offers excellent green spaces for sport and leisure practice. The renewal of infrastructures for Education and Health have taken a strategic character and are today one more differentiating factor of our city.
