Toledo
Toledo generates €17bn of GDP across 755.1k residents. Its Opportunity Index of 61.2/100 puts it in the upper quartile of EU regions, led by economic growth and economic scale. Its economy has grown +5.4%/yr over five years and accelerating, with the employment rate up 7.0pp. On quality of life it ranks strongest for health (89th EU percentile) and weakest for jobs (8th).
Long-run trajectory · EU percentile of real GDP per head, 1995–2024
Mid-field stable30 → 24 EU percentile since 1995 (-6 ranks)
Yearly EU-wide percentile of real GDP per head (ARDECO regional accounts, constant 2020 prices, derived over population). 50 = the EU median that year; percentiles are scale-free, so decades are directly comparable. See the backtest for what long-run prosperity ranks do — and don't — anticipate.
