A brief history of L’Antiga Esquerra de l’Eixample

The university and the Ninot area help explain how this part of the Eixample developed.

The university and the new city

The historic University of Barcelona building accompanied the Eixample’s growth after the city walls were demolished. Homes, shops and public facilities gradually developed around it.

The Ninot as a meeting place

An old tavern and its figure of a cabin boy gave the Ninot area, and later its market, their name. This commercial heritage is part of the neighbourhood’s identity, linking its urban transformation with everyday life.

05 · Sources and methodology

What these
figures tell us

A useful comparison starts with understanding what each figure measures. Open the historical tables and read the notes accompanying each indicator.

Are these asking prices or recorded sale prices?

The market section uses averages from recorded transactions, based on notarial statistics published by the City Council. These differ from the asking prices shown on property portals.

Why do the reference dates differ?

Sales, cadastral, population register and income data are released on different schedules. Each section shows its reference period. Viewing this page today does not mean all indicators relate to the same year.

Does the average floor area cover all homes?

The sales section measures the homes that were sold. The housing stock section measures homes recorded in the cadastre. These are different populations, so their averages can differ.

What do “Suppressed” and “Not published” mean?

“Suppressed” means the source withholds the information to protect confidentiality. “Not published” means no value is available for the category and period shown. Neither expression means zero.

Can I value my home using the price per m²?

The neighbourhood average is a general reference. An individual valuation requires an assessment of the exact location, floor area, floor level, lift, natural light, condition and building characteristics, together with suitable comparable properties.
