Abstract

Massive changes have taken place in the spatial urban structure of Galicia in the last decades. There is certain similarity between the process of metropolitation of Galicia and the same process in others Europe Regions; the Periurbanization has been evident in some of the Galicia's most populous cities, particularly en the edge of A Comña and Vigo, but the small city of Santiago de Compostela has known it too. This work focuses on an analysis of the Periurbanization and countemrbanization within Hinterland of Santiago de Compostela.
