Living in Camprodon

Camprodon is a mountain town of 2,500 in the Catalan Pyrenees with a distinctly upscale, alpine-holiday air — a broad promenade lined with villas kept by well-off Catalans, ski and outdoor shops, and the graceful medieval Pont Nou over the river Ter. At around 700m in the high valleys, winters are cold with frost and summers pleasantly warm near 30°C. Its year-round population is smaller than it looks in season and fairly mixed, with a notable Colombian community. It is genuinely tucked away — the nearest hospital is a good fifty minutes off and any city well over an hour.

Numbers: Spainability town dataset, derived from INE, AEMET, Mitma and the Catastro. Registered long-let rent is SERPAVI declared-contract data; its p25–p75 values show the observed band. Registered-rent yield is gross, excludes costs and is never imputed. Percentile chips count only the municipalities that report the figure — the "of n" says how many. Region-ranked figures (PISA, surgical waits) compare Spain's 17 comunidades autónomas. A blank means no municipal-level figure is published — not a zero.
