Medina del Campo, a historic village in Castilla y León located less than two hours from the Portuguese border, is standing out as a real alternative for those looking to escape expensive homes and find stability again, with rents starting at 500 euros.
According to Executive Digest, a website specializing in economics, the town is part of a repopulation program that combines affordable housing, employment in various sectors and comprehensive services, attracting more and more attention from Portuguese people who are considering changing their lives without losing quality.
The municipality, with more than 20 thousand inhabitants, wants to attract new residents through rents starting at 500 euros, houses for purchase from 50 thousand euros and a diversified job market.
According to the same publication, Medina del Campo is today positioned as one of the most active locations in Spain in attracting new residents, offering conditions that have become almost impossible in large cities.
Rents from 500 euros and houses from 50 thousand
While in Portugal the price of housing continues to keep many young people and families away from access to a home, Medina del Campo presents values that are already rare in the Iberian context. According to Executive Digest, it is possible to find well-located apartments and houses for 500 euros per month, as well as houses for purchase from 50 thousand euros.
The town also has good access, fiber optics, broadband and essential services practically on the doorstep, making life easier for those who work in a hybrid or remote regime.
Employment in varied sectors
The job offer is one of the pillars of the “Come Live in a Village” program. According to the same source, there are opportunities in maintenance, industry, food production, industrial cleaning, hospitality, personal care, social services, clinical assistance, fuel pumps and even technical roles such as WWTP operators.
The diversity of sectors distinguishes Medina del Campo from other repopulating towns, which depend almost exclusively on the agricultural sector. Here, there is stable employment for very different profiles, from qualified young people to workers with practical experience.
Complete services and quality of life
Medina del Campo has a health center, schools, daycare centers, sports equipment, an indoor swimming pool, cultural centers and a robust commercial network, with supermarkets, banks, pharmacies and restaurants. According to , digital connectivity is ensured by optical fiber and 4G, reaching most areas of the town.
The historical heritage and community experience make the environment even more appealing for those looking to escape urban pressure without giving up essential services.
A real alternative for those who want to start over
With low rents, affordable homes, available jobs and full services, Medina del Campo presents itself as a solid option for those who want to take a new direction in life. According to the publication, the Spanish municipality is increasingly prepared to receive those looking for more space, more tranquility and fewer costs.
