Who lives here
Net migration: the people who moved in, from abroad or the rest of Spain, minus those who left (INE, from 2021).
- Net migration, La Rioja province, 2024

Residence is not nationality: a foreigner living in Spain buys as a resident, and a Spaniard living abroad as a non-resident. MIVAU publishes counts by province, not prices, so the report describes how many homes buyers abroad take, not what they pay.
