Source and method
A year of average rent on new contracts as a share of average net household income. Red is more stretched than the median Catalan town, blue less. The income covers every household, owners included, so this understates what renters pay: few towns pass the usual 30% overburden line. Rent is the latest Incasòl year; INE's income lags two years. Source: Incasòl (rent) and INE ADRH (household income), 2025. Comarca figures are population-weighted averages of their towns.
