Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
The objective of this study is to show different recent trends (20012009) in second hand housing prices in different neighbourhoods in Alcalà de Henares and León. It explains that the former is a city in the metropolitan area of Madrid, with high land prices and an increasing demand for housing. And that the second is Léon, the capital of the province of León, which is undergoing a depopulation process. It demonstrates that house price dynamics is a local phenomenon and national or regional level data conceal interesting differences within cities (districts and neighbourhoods). It concludes that the latest rise and decline in housing prices is clearly visible on the outskirts and sometimes non existent in the town centre area.
