Alhaurín el Grande is situated at the foot of the northern slopes of the Mijas mountains, offering wonderful views over the Guadalhorce Valley, rich in fruit and vegetable patches, and olive and cereal groves. The municipality has other urban areas apart from Alhaurín itself, the result of its agricultural development, such as Villafranco del Guadalhorce, el Cigarral and la Fuente del Perro. Alhaurin is as popular now with northern Europeans as ever before, with hundreds of ex-pats purchasing both first and second homes in the area over recent years, driving the property prices higher. Old townhouses are becoming more difficult to locate within the town and house prices are only marginally cheaper than some areas of the coast due to the ongoing demand for rural real estate close to the coastal amenities, international schools and the beaches.
Alhaurín el Grande has a high population of English people living there, so is a more european town opposed to your traditional Spanish village. Whilst walking around Alhaurín please be careful of the pavements they are as slippery as hell...
The local market is held on a Thursday on the Fería Ground behind Mercadona and has a good selection of fresh fruit and veg.
