This is the town in Spain where less than 10% of the residents are Spanish.

Spain is a country known for its diversity. Large cities with vibrant cultural life, such as Madrid and Barcelona, are spread across its territory. You can also find small towns and remote villages that are home to numerous interesting attractions . One of the clearest examples is the Guadalajara municipality of Torre del Burgo.
With just 592 inhabitants, it is the town in Spain with the largest foreign population relative to its total population, at 89.52% , according to the Socioeconomic Fact Sheets web tool of the General Council of Economists (CGE).
According to the most recent data from the National Institute of Statistics (INE), only 9.3% (55) of the town's residents have Spanish nationality . In contrast, more than 90% (537) are foreigners, with one nationality standing out: Bulgarian. Of all the inhabitants living in this town, 84.6% (501) are originally from this Eastern European country. The rest, although in smaller numbers, come from Morocco, Romania and Italy.
Harvesting asparagusIt wasn't always this way. Just over 10 years ago, this town in Castilla-La Mancha had barely more than 250 residents and, like many other inland towns, was facing aging and depopulation. The turning point came with the arrival of workers of that nationality, many of whom initially came to participate in the asparagus harvest , a widespread crop in the area that requires a significant amount of labor during the season.
What began as a temporary migration movement transformed over time. Several of these families chose to settle permanently, registering in the municipal registry and putting down roots in the village. In just six years, the number of inhabitants doubled , reaching almost 600. Today, Bulgarians play a fundamental role in both the local social life and economy.
