Before you move: our read of the numbers

Practical conclusions we draw from Siero’s figures. They are inferences, not official statistics: each says what it rests on.

Plan on Spanish from day one

Our guess

Few residents come from English-speaking or northern European countries, so daily life runs in Spanish. Contracts, the town hall and most doctors work in Spanish.

  • 23.9% of residents speak English (Principado de Asturias), 2021
  • 3.2% born elsewhere in Europe or in North America (Principado de Asturias)
