dc.description.abstractTourism in the city of Porto, the second largest city of Portugal, has grown mainly in the last decade, which has been accompanied by a growing number of hotel establishments and local accommodation. If, on the one hand, this phenomenon has instigated a rehabilitation of buildings in the historic centre of the city, on the other hand, it may have created pressures on residents, especially in terms of housing. Tourists and residents are actors involved in the tourism sector whose relationship must be studied to achieve a balance between the two to avoid conflict. As a result, this study aims to analyse the social impact of tourism and housing abandonment in the historic centre of Porto, as well as the economic and environmental impacts. To analyse how tourism impacts residents, a quantitative methodology (survey) was followed, which allowed us to understand the residents' point of view. Based on the survey results, indexes of residents' perception of economic, social and environmental impacts were constructed and related to housing abandonment. The results obtained suggest that the abandonment of housing in the historic centre of Porto can be explained by the negative effects of social and environmental impacts of tourism, but not by the economic impact.pt_PT
