AB [EN] This article analyses processes of change undergone by Spanish medium-sized cities during1981–2011 on the one hand, and 2000–2018 on the other, as they are different sources. We established aclassification to show the importance of this type of city starting from the hypothesis that the processis a generalised one in which they behave according to their position in the territory. The dynamicsof change are predominantly associated with contexts of economic expansion. The typology wasgenerated based on population and housing variables, which synthesise the role played by economicactivity in each city. Additional methodologies were used: firstly, the bibliography on medium-sizedcities in different social and cultural contexts was reviewed; secondly, statistical data were selected,compiled and processed using multivariant statistical analyses, and the results mapped. A study of133 cities was carried out and absolute values and variation rates used to understand the processesof change. As a result, seven representative groups were obtained. The conclusions of the study canbe corroborated by different sources.
