With a lovely Spanish wife and living in an all Spanish environment in Navara, northern Spain: I am eagerly seeking a second home where there are ex-pats. Before I go farther, therefore, would like to hear from anyone who knows if there is a vibrant Ex-pat community in Elche. Is there? How many Ex-pats live in Elche, year-round, where congregate? Am planning to be there mostly in the winter months. Thank you for any information.

Hello Jeremy, sorry for very late acknowledgment and reply. I’m not on the forum all the time so have just seen your question. 

We live in Matola, which is a rural area on the outskirts of Elche and besides us, I know of two other British couples who live here year round. There is also a fairly big British expat community in Catral, which is about 15 - 20 minutes away via the AP7 motorway. 

We do have an expat group for people living around Elche/Crevillent and we try to meet up regularly, taking turns to host the meet or arrange to go out somewhere.

Best of luck! Mai
