> There are problems with tensions between locals and digital nomads in several places, especially Portugal
I have never heard of this before, and I have a few portuguese friends.
Also, in the context of Lisbon, I doubt that 16,000 salaried workers [0] could influence the market to that extent in a city of 500,000 people, especially given that digital nomads make, on average, $120,000 [1].
It seems to me that digital nomads are the new scapegoats for people who don't like to point their finger inwards.
