Enguera
Encyclopedia : E : EN : ENG : Enguera
Enguera is a municipality in southwestern Valencia province, Spain. It covers more than 240 km2 and has a population of 5,771 inhabitants as of January 1 2003, 1,200 of whom are of foreign origin. The local economy depends primarily on agriculture, and secondarily on industry and services. In recent years, agricultural crops, especially olives, have gained in importance, although the complementary or secondary component of agriculture is evident. Rural tourism, including camping, country homes, a hotel, and restaurants are gaining importance. Meanwhile, the once-flourishing industry that was an important part of the village economy at the end of the eighteenth century has faded almost to nothing. While many of Enguera's inhabitants work in industry, their jobs are in nearby towns.
