Grande Lisboa

Grande Lisboa — Greater Lisbon, the statistical area around the capital
Not a city or a district but an area used for statistics, made up of nine municipalities: Amadora, Cascais, Lisboa (Lisbon), Loures, Mafra, Odivelas, Oeiras, Sintra and Vila Franca de Xira. When the news gives an average house price or rent “in Greater Lisbon”, it means exactly these nine.
Where you come across it. House prices and rents, INE statistics, property listings.
Greater Lisbon is nine municipalities, whereas Lisbon district is sixteen: the district also includes Torres Vedras, Alenquer, Arruda dos Vinhos and others to the north, but Greater Lisbon does not. The Greater Lisbon average is noticeably higher than the national average, so the two figures should not be confused.
