What the housing stock is like here

Sant Boi de Llobregat has 31,530 main homes, and the most common size is 46 to 60 m² — 40.8% of them. 51.7% come in under 60 m², so the work here is bathrooms and kitchens far more often than full renovations.

24,402 of those homes are owner-occupied, 77.4%. That is the figure that actually matters for a renovation, because a tenant does not commission a kitchen. There are 31,527 households and 85,317 residents in total.

23,481 homes were built before 1981, 1.7% of all the older stock across the 85 municipalities. In that band you normally find wiring with no earth, original soil pipes and aluminium windows with no thermal break, and that is what pushes a quote up. Gross disposable household income is €19,548 per resident (Idescat, 2023).

1970s blocks with slightly more floor area than the Baix Llobregat average, and lightwells that make extractor ducting easier.
