The current forecast is that the growth of Terrassa will reach a population figure of around 246,000 inhabitants in 2033.
Attraction of the metropolitan population due to the effects of the evolution of the real estate market
The pre-2008 trend continues: decentralization (from the metropolitan center to the 2nd crown) and dispersion (from larger municipalities to smaller ones).
Income per inhabitant lower than the Catalan and Valaisan average, with the relocation of high incomes and unequal distribution by neighbourhood
The income per inhabitant in the city of Terrassa is below the average for all of Catalonia and the Vallès region.
Population aging trend, but less than the whole of Catalonia, the metropolitan region and neighboring municipalities
