Moving to Spain

May 3rd, 2006

Did you know that Spain is one of the most popular EU countries to relocate to? This is not only for the Brits but for citizens of all other European countries as well.

I was reading some interesting stats the other day. If you are thinking of Moving to Spain, this may interest you. According to the Costa Blanca News, the growth experienced by Denia and Calpe on the Costa Blanca has seen the population of both towns increase by 48 and 77 per cent respectively over the last 9 years. Calpe’s population growth has only been exceeded by that of Torrevieja where figures for the same period show a demographic growth of around 134%.

I have been to Torrevieja and it is not my cup of tea. Denia and Calpe are far more up my alley. Maybe there is a reason for the major growth in those regions. Denia and Calpe surpassed the growth of major cities like Madrid and Barcelona and beat places like Jávea, Benidorm and Marbella. If you are making the big move, I suggest you investigate these parts of Spain.

Malaga is also very popular with the Brits but be aware that it is the second most expensive city in Spain after Barcelona. By the way Air Berlin will be starting a new route from Málaga over this summer (started on May 1st from Málaga, via Palma de Mallorca) to Linz in Austria and also to Amsterdam, Stansted and other airports in Germany.
