What is it so interesting in Porto for you to ask? Just curious as I live some 400 km south of it.. :)
For some reason it's become the place to be. I visited last November, it was incredibly crowded with tourists/nomads from all over.

The rest of Portugal is incredibly friendly, but in Porto I perhaps perceived some resentment from locals and small business owners, just for being yet another foreigner.

Part of Porto's charm is its signature roughness ;)

- But are you actually considering moving there?

If the people you are talking to isn't using swear words as punctuation, you are being gentrified.

No, just visited.
