About Green Spain Living
Green Spain Living is a practical resource for people exploring what it’s really like to live in Northern Spain, starting with Gijón, Asturias.
The goal is simple: to provide clear, useful information about daily life, housing, and decision-making for those considering a move.
Most information about Spain focuses on major cities or general travel content.
But moving to a place — especially with a family — requires a different level of detail: real costs, neighborhood differences, housing realities, and everyday life.
This site is being built to document that process in a more practical way.
What You’ll Find Here
- Realistic cost of living breakdowns
- Neighborhood comparisons and trade-offs
- Practical guidance on finding housing
- Insights into daily life in Gijón
- Tools and resources for relocation planning
A Practical Approach
This project is based on first-hand research and the process of planning a move to Gijón as a family.
Rather than focusing on idealized views, the goal is to understand what actually works — from budgeting and housing to choosing the right area to live.
Looking Ahead..
While the initial focus is on Gijón, the long-term goal is to expand this resource to cover other parts of Green Spain, including Asturias, Cantabria, and Galicia.
