Covilhã
7.1
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Covilhã sits on the eastern face of Serra da Estrela at around 700m altitude and has a legitimate university — Universidade da Beira Interior — that pushes several thousand students through town each year. The old textile factory buildings have been converted into the UBI campus, which gives the place a slightly more interesting urban texture than you'd expect from a city this size. Student presence softens the otherwise aging demographic considerably, and there's enough bar life around the Rua Marquês d'Ávila e Bolama corridor to have a real night out. Still interior Portugal, still conservative baseline, but the student ratio makes it the most socially accessible county in this region.
