Burgos is a small and attractive city where living is easy and affordable. It offers significant advantages over larger cities, since it has a great quality of life with all the services as well as a great cultural offer and countless natural landscapes.
Burgos has an incomparable green belt that surrounds the urban area, the true lung of the city. Burgos residents are proud of this unique space full of pines, trees and birds.
It is a city with an important artistic heritage and great gastronomic potential, recognized nationally and internationally. Nearby are spectacular enclaves recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage: the Camino de Santiago and the Sierra de Atapuerca sites.
Burgos is a very dynamic expanding city with economic activity that has been strongly growing in recent years and a large real estate offer. Thanks to the opening of the Vista Alegre Hospital, the area has acquired special relevance. Burgos is the industrial capital of Castilla y León, with 20.67% of the workers in the functional urban area of Burgos linked to industry.
The main disadvantage of living in Burgos is the climate, with very cold winters, difficult to bear for many visitors, and also for those who come to stay. This is the reason why the percentage of foreigners living in the city is very small.
