With a population of approximately 35,000 people, Teruel is one of the smallest provincial capitals in Spain. The city has a relatively low population density, which contributes to its tranquil atmosphere. The majority of the population is Spanish, though recent years have seen a slow increase in international residents, particularly from neighboring European countries and Latin America, due to improved transportation links and the growth of the tourism sector.
Teruel’s demographics reflect its deep-rooted traditions and agricultural heritage, though younger generations are increasingly drawn to the city’s growing cultural scene and tourism opportunities.
