La Línea de la Concepción has a population of around 64,000 residents, making it one of the smaller cities in the province of Cádiz. The city’s demographic is characterized by a mix of Spanish nationals and expatriates, particularly from the United Kingdom, due to its proximity to Gibraltar. This diversity gives the city a unique, cosmopolitan feel while still maintaining its strong Andalusian identity.
The population has been relatively stable in recent years, with a slight increase due to the city’s appeal as a residential area for those working in Gibraltar. The majority of the population is engaged in service industries, particularly tourism and cross-border commerce. La Línea also has a younger demographic compared to some other Andalusian cities, with a growing number of families and professionals choosing to settle here due to its coastal location and affordable living costs.
