Life & work in Castellón
What the city is really like beyond the postcard — the context you'll want before you land.
Culture
Castellón is the Valencian community's northern province — capital of the world ceramic-tile industry (the 'Cluster Cerámico' in Vila-real / Onda ships 80% of Europe's floor tiles), and a coastline that runs from Peñíscola's papal castle down to the orange groves of Burriana. Quiet, affordable, deeply Valencian.
Getting around
Local TUCS buses; Cercanías trains to Valencia in 45 minutes; a car helps for the industrial hinterland.
Best for
Ceramics, industrial design, logistics, agri-food and Valencian-language interns.
