Masquefa has a population of approximately 9,000 residents, making it a small but growing town. The population is a mix of long-term residents, many of whom are involved in agriculture and local businesses, and newer residents who have moved to Masquefa due to its proximity to Barcelona. The town has experienced steady population growth in recent years, with more people choosing to live in Masquefa while commuting to work in the larger city.
The majority of the population is of Catalan descent, but like many towns in the region, Masquefa is becoming more diverse, with a small but growing international community. This has led to a dynamic mix of cultural influences, which can be seen in the town’s festivals and daily life.
