Hello All!

We are a family of four. Three children ages 2, 7, and 9.

We are coming from the US (Texas).

I am looking for advice on which cities would be the best for a young family.

I am interested in a town house or villa which are very accessible to schools / supermarket / hospitals ..etc.

I won't have a car, so everything being walking distance or within public transportation is critical.

So far I have looked at Malaga / Alicante and Granada.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello and welcome !

May I ask for what purpose are you moving to Spain (family, work, business) ?

Feel free to read the Living in Spain guide for expats till members shed the light on your queries.

All the best

Check out Arenys de mar, 50km from

Barcelona, great train service to Barcelona, small village of 15000, on the coast, fishing village. Great weather, not too hot or cold. I have a 14 year old who learned the language in less than 2 years. Everything is walking distance: train, bus, town center, beach, all between 4-6 minutes on foot. I bought an apartment 9 years ago for vacation, now live here full time. Can assist you for starting a fun business in spain too!

Regards,
