Urgell

Urgell is a comarca located in Catalonia, Spain. Recent news highlights several aspects of life in this rural region. Firstly, there are reports of a significant rabbit population, impacting the local environment. Secondly, the area is experiencing rural depopulation, a common challenge for many rural regions. To address this, efforts are being made to provide affordable housing. Recently, eight public housing units were inaugurated in the former Guardia Civil barracks in Ciutadilla, Urgell.

The inauguration was attended by local and regional officials, demonstrating the importance of this project to the region's future.
