Where it stands against the rest
Guadalajara's percentile among the 52 provinces, computed on the same figure for all of them.
Within Castilla-La Mancha it ranks 5 of 5 on gross yield.
Demand, employment and liquidity
The structural depth of the market: how many people live here, what they earn, how much changes hands and what stress it carries. This is market context, never a measure of tenant risk.
Housing repossessions
A figure the INE only publishes per province: how many urban dwellings end in repossession, against the total stock. It measures market stress, not tenant risk.
