Living in Los Alcázares: the figures
- Official name (INE)
- Alcázares, Los
- INE code
- 30902
- Province
- Murcia
This page brings together public data about the municipality from Spanish and European agencies: house prices and rents, property tax, who lives here, climate and air, recorded crime, tourist lets, internet coverage and the distance to the nearest airport, station, beach and hospital. Each figure carries its source, its period and the level it was measured at. When an agency publishes a value only for the whole province, we say so next to it; when it publishes nothing for this place, the block says “no data” rather than borrowing a neighbour's figure.

Property tax (IBI)

The rate applies to the taxable base (cadastral value, less any revaluation reduction); what you actually pay is on the IBI receipt, which you should ask the seller for.

Methods
How we assign weather and air stations
Climate and air are measured at stations, not across a municipality. We take the municipality's main settlement and look for the nearest station: for air, an urban or suburban background station within 10 km whose valid readings cover at least 75% of the year, never a traffic or industrial station; for climate, an AEMET station within 25 km. The station's name and its straight-line distance are shown with the figure. If no station qualifies, the block says “no data”: we do not interpolate or borrow from a neighbouring town.
How we measure distances
Distances to the nearest airport, railway station, beach and hospital are measured in a straight line from the municipality's main settlement, not along roads, so the real journey is longer and its time depends on traffic. Airports come from the official aeronautical publication of Spain (AIP, ENAIRE), stations from Renfe's open timetable data, beaches from the Ministry for the Ecological Transition's beach guide, and hospitals from the Ministry of Health's national hospital catalogue.
