Social Security pays on average 361 euros in RSI to families in the Algarve, but there is a district where the amount reaches 484 euros

Social Security data from March 2026 reveal significant differences in average Social Insertion Income values between Portuguese districts: while Faro recorded an average of 361.20 euros per household, Beja reached 483.70 euros, a difference of 122.50 euros monthly. This disparity does not reflect fixed values per region, but rather the average of processed benefits, which vary according to household composition and considered income. The RSI is calculated based on a reference value of 247.56 euros, plus percentages for each household member, and is intended for people in situations of extreme poverty. The benefit will be replaced by the Single Social Benefit from December 31, 2026.
