In Lisbon they speak a lot of English. When I was in Porto I was with some native Portuguese speakers so hard for me to gauge, but even in a small town like Nazarre there was a good bit of English speakers.
English is compulsory from at least 3rd grade on, some start earlier.
As a local told me, anyone under 50 who pretends they can't speak English is a liar.
(It's probably not quite this ubiquitous, but pretty close)

We went to Lisbon and sintra and 90% of the people spoke English and were super happy to see Americans. Most of them are like tour guides too because they had a deep knowledge of their history. I can see why so many ex pats are relocating there due to the prices and the friendly nature of the people. Headed back to Porto in July. Can’t wait.
