Puerto Real has a population of approximately 42,000 people, with a mix of long-time residents and a growing number of newcomers drawn by its coastal charm and proximity to larger cities. The city’s demographics are diverse, with a blend of families, young professionals, and retirees. In recent years, Puerto Real has seen a rise in population due to its attractive quality of life, affordable housing, and excellent location near the coast.
The population is predominantly Spanish, but the city’s proximity to Cádiz and its maritime history has contributed to a small but vibrant international community. Many residents are employed in industries related to shipbuilding, tourism, and agriculture, while others commute to nearby cities for work.
