It really is a breath of fresh air to read such positive news about the beautiful province of Malaga we all love and adore. But who knew that it is actually one of the best places to live for good air quality. In fact, pollution across the entire Iberian Peninsula is actually at amazingly low levels.
Many people are now becoming wise to the fact that living and working in busy cities with a constant flow of traffic and other air polluting transportation, not to mention the industrial pollution also being thrown into the atmosphere, is a killer!
Did you know that according to an article in Homes and Travel UK, the toxicity of air in the UK was above the EU’s legal limits every year in a row since 2010?
So how are people in these busy cities and suburbs working to retreat to less polluted areas of the globe? Well one way and something we are hearing as a reason more and more, is to purchase a second home in places like Malaga. It is just 2 hours from most northern European destinations, has hundreds of flights every day and is bathed in sunshine throughout most of the year.
In fact, ‘World Happiness Report of 2017’ put Spain right up there as one of the top destinations where people live a longer and healthier life.
Many of the studies on air pollution actually show that within Spain, the air pollution in the city centre of Malaga is among some of the cleanest in the country. Now head further along from the city to places like Estepona for example, and you will get even less pollution.
With many of the top developers now choosing Estepona to build their new homes, and a huge upgrade in the infrastructure of the area, property for sale in Estepona is at an all time high.
