Almuñecar reaches 27,200 residents

The town of Almuñecar has reached a total population of 27,200 residents; 14,632 men and 14,775 women.

According to the INE (national institute of statistics) the figure is 27,200 on the padron (resident’s registry) but according to the municipal offices the number is 29,407.

The numbers of the padron and municipal offices hardly ever coincide as people move around and forget to take themselves off the list; also the number of births and deaths has to be taken into account.

Don’t forget: if you’re not on the padron you aren’t an official resident and you may not be able to take advantage of some of the facilities on offer by your local council.
