That's nice. But does it have supermarkets, cafes, physicians and schools within walking distance? The article omits to say.

This is important. When Lisbon expanded in the 1960s the newly built-up areas were designed so that primary schools and churches were always within walking distance, as these were the centers of community. And apartment blocks had shops on the ground floor.
