    The Wider Image: Migrants struggle to cope with Portugal’s ‘suffocating’

    Andreia Costa, 50, from Sao Paulo, Brazil, takes belongings out of a tent, as she cleans at the improvised campsite in a field where she lives in Carcavelos, in Cascais, Portugal, October 11, 2023. Seeking a more comfortable life, Costa moved to Portugal from Brazil in 2022, but within months her hopes were dashed, as the country's housing crisis left her unable to afford accommodation and forced to live in a tent. On a site on the outskirts of Lisbon she was joined by other migrants and some locals, priced out of a city where rents have soared 94 percent since 2015 and house prices have risen 186 percent, according to housing data specialists Confidencial Imobiliario.  REUTERS/Pedro Nunes
