Foreign residents by municipality, 2025
This dataset gives the number and share of residents with a foreign nationality in each Spanish municipality, and the main nationalities that the National Statistics Institute (INE) publishes separately, such as British, French, Ukrainian, Romanian or Moroccan, from the annual population census. Numerator and denominator come from the same table and the same date. The figure counts nationality, not country of birth, and only people registered as living in the municipality. Foreigners who become Spanish citizens are counted as Spanish. Owners who spend part of the year on the coast without registering are not counted, so in resort towns the foreign presence in winter can be much higher than the figure shows. German, Dutch, Belgian and Russian nationals are also published separately; smaller nationalities appear in the group for their continent.

How we calculate zone and province figures
A zone or province figure combines the values of its municipalities that have data, weighted by population, and states how many of them have the figure. When an agency publishes a value directly for the province, we use the published value and say so. A combined figure describes the area as a whole; towns within it can differ a lot, and their own pages show it.
