Alcira is home to approximately 45,000 residents. The city has a diverse demographic makeup, with a mix of native Valencians and people from other parts of Spain and abroad. Alcira’s population has seen moderate growth in recent years, driven by its proximity to Valencia and its appeal as a quieter, more affordable alternative to larger cities.
The city’s demographics also reflect its history as a cultural crossroads, with influences from Moorish, Christian, and Roman periods. This cultural diversity is still evident today in the city’s architecture, festivals, and local customs.
