With a population of just 112,235, Jaén is a small provincial capital that struggles to offer the creature comforts of bigger Spanish cities. The industrial center has a heavy tax burden and the bureaucracy is a persistent headache, though the climate is generally mild with hot summers and mild, moderately wet winters. While Jaén boasts some historic landmarks like the Jaén Cathedral, it's unlikely to wow most international transplants seeking an exciting new life abroad.
