Alhendín is home to a population of around 8,500 residents, though this number has been steadily growing as more people choose to settle in the town due to its proximity to Granada. The population is a mix of locals with deep Andalusian roots and a growing number of expatriates, particularly from other parts of Europe, who are drawn to the area’s pleasant climate and relaxed lifestyle.
The town has a relatively young demographic, with many families choosing to live here due to its peaceful environment and strong sense of community. The local population is diverse, yet there is a strong emphasis on maintaining traditional customs and celebrating Andalusian culture.
