Unemployment in this area amounts to 22% and consists mainly of men aged between 25 and 44 years.
The largest number of foreign population is between 30-34 years (283), coming to equate with the Spanish (291).
The technicians of the Department of Social Rights have detected an important presence of marginal economy in the neighborhood, with a feeling of high insecurity of the citizen, lack of resources and social facilities of city, or neighborhood reference entities.
This is compounded by the constant loss of standardized population, increases in absenteeism and school drop-out rates, overcrowding and deterioration of housing or community and urban spaces, or lack of coexistence among resident groups.
All this translates into a lack of commercial appeal and service for the rest of the population.
On the contrary, they emphasize the continuous presence and recognition by the population of the municipal social services, the implementation of work in network with social organizations, as well as a continued presence of social projects directed to young people and children of the neighborhood.
