With an approximate population of 58,000 inhabitants, Ávila is located on a plateau at 1,131 meters above sea level, which gives it a continental climate with cold winters and warm summers.

Its economy has traditionally been linked to agriculture and livestock, although today cultural tourism is a fundamental pillar.
