Canarias
For retirees from the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia or New Zealand looking at Canarias, Spain. We cover 3 places here: Arona, Granadilla de Abona and San Bartolomé de Tirajana, each one comparable with a town anywhere else we hold.
Canarias is not compared with a town — compare the towns below instead. Why?
Canarias, an autonomous community of Spain, is not the same kind of thing as a town: it spans many municipalities and very different places. Putting a autonomous community-wide average beside one town's own figures produces a number that looks like an answer and describes nothing a person would experience — so the engine refuses that pairing rather than rendering it thinly. A town against another town, here or abroad, is like-for-like. Build a comparison →
Research in progress. Our quality assessment of the official sources for Spain is not finished yet. Every figure published here is sourced and dated.
