Methodology and disclosure

  • Just the Girls blends nightlife quality, safety, English ease, value stretch, and a women's-getaway popularity overlay led by Porto, Lisbon, and other proven all-female getaway patterns.
  • The current build now carries a separate nightlife-quality overlay, but it is still curated rather than pulled from venue-level public counts.
  • Public nightlife, beauty, spa, and resort-density overlays would make this lens materially more defensible.

Affiliate disclosure, pricing language, and the broader source inventory remain one tap away in the launch trust pages.
