Living in Pobla de Segur, La

La Pobla de Segur is an amiable town of 3,200 in the Pyrenean foothills of Lleida, one of the larger settlements in the Noguera valley and a popular base for white-water rafting and mountain scenery. For its size it's notably mixed, with a large Moroccan community leaving about three-quarters of residents Spanish-born. Set high among the mountains, it has cold winters and mild summers. A hospital is about forty minutes away, but the nearest city, Lleida, is a good hour and a half down the valley, so it's firmly a mountain town.

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.
