Villaviciosa de Odón has a population of around 28,000 residents, giving it a small-town feel while still offering a vibrant community. The town is predominantly Spanish, but its proximity to Madrid and the presence of the European University of Madrid has led to an increasingly diverse population, with students and professionals from all over the world choosing to live or study here.
The town has seen steady population growth in recent years, particularly among young families and professionals seeking a more relaxed lifestyle compared to Madrid’s urban environment. This demographic shift has contributed to a lively atmosphere, with a mix of long-standing residents and newer arrivals enriching the town’s cultural landscape.
