Puebla de Albortón

Can you build a house on rustic land?

Aragón requires at least 1 ha for a new house on rustic land.

DL 1/2014, art. 34.2. A town plan can be stricter.

Plan in force: Plan General (a full town plan), from 2015. The region's planning viewer ↗

The SIU does not map land classes here: the town plan is the source.

Only the town hall can confirm it, in writing: ask for a certificado urbanístico.

Is there water?

IGME records 13 wells and boreholes in Puebla de Albortón. Half of the 12 with a depth found water at 113–201 m.

Ground: 52% practically impermeable; 19% porous aquifer, high productivity; 15% low permeability, local groundwater only; 6.7% karstic or fissured aquifer, high productivity; 6.7% porous aquifer, medium productivity.

Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
