Typical range: €205 – €380

€3.37/m² × floor area (INE median of all sizes, 2025); range: 1st and 3rd quartile (€2.39/m² to €4.45/m²). The table below adjusts the €/m² to each size: larger homes cost less per m².

Monthly rent from T0 to T4

Size Reference area Estimated median rent Typical range¹ €/m² used
T0 or T1 (studio, 1-bed) 48 m² €275 €195 – €365 5.75
T2 (2-bed) 85 m² €300 €215 – €395 3.53
T3 (3-bed) 115 m² €345 €245 – €455 2.99
T4+ (4-bed or more)² 145 m² min. €345 – 2.37

Aluseg estimate: median €/m² (2025) adjusted by the gap between sizes INE measures in the region (Terras de Trás-os-Montes) and multiplied by a reference floor area. INE does not publish monthly rent by size at municipality level.

¹ Between INE's 1st and 3rd quartile of €/m²: roughly half of the new leases fall in this range.

² Times the reference area, the €/m² INE measures for this size would give a rent below the smaller size (INE pools every T4 or larger home, big homes with a low €/m²), which is not what the market charges. We show the plausible minimum (the smaller size's value), with no range, instead of a misleading number.

Rent and income

How much of income does rent take? The case of Miranda do Douro

Rent of an 85 m² T2 (Aluseg estimate from INE data, new leases, 2025)€300/month

  • One person on the median income€957/month, after income tax, 202431%
  • A couple (two median incomes)€1,914/month, after income tax, 202416%
  • Average earnings of an employee€1,136/month, gross, by workplace, 202426%
  • 35%: the limit used in the extraordinary rent support (Decree-Law 20-B/2023) and in IHRU programmes (official figure).
  • 40%: INE/Eurostat housing-cost overburden threshold (indicative: it is defined on household disposable income).

Among all municipalities with data

Miranda do Douro ranks 14th of 254 municipalities, ordered from the lowest to the highest weight of a T2 rent in one person's median income. Median municipality: 50%.

How to read this figure

  • Income per person, not per household. We set the rent of a T2 against the median income of one person; the couple bar shows two median incomes. It is not the rent-to-income ratio of a specific household.
  • Different years. The rent is 2025 and the income is 2024.
  • Rent of new leases. An older lease, with yearly updates, may have a different rent.
  • Median income after income tax (INE, 0012757): declared gross income minus the income tax due, per taxpayer and place of residence. It is net of income tax but still gross of social-security contributions, and includes pensioners.
  • Average monthly earnings (INE, 0012656): employees, gross and by workplace, not by residence.
  • Reference lines. 35% is an official figure (extraordinary rent support and IHRU programmes); 40% is the INE/Eurostat threshold, only indicative here. We do not draw other lines as if they were official.
