Abstract

Housing has turned into a first line economic factor in Spain for 25 years. The amount of built housing has not got that price of the built square metre has been adapted to the average demanded for the potential purchaser. Nowadays, Spain is one of the European Union countries with highest prices in the construction industry. Salamanca has also shown important housing building activity in the same period, although its demographic development is getting worse every time, it moves towards a zero growth. The general Town Planning development has built more than 27.000 housings, and as in Spain, the town has seen a neverending growth in the value of the built land.
