Over the years, the community has attracted a cluster of famous faces, including American actor Richard Gere who purchased a property in La Moraleja for €11 million.

Bidding farewell to the US, the actor appears to be excited about his new adventure with his wife Alejandra and their two children, Alexander, five, their youngest son who is three, and her son, Albert, 11.
"For me, going to Madrid is going to be a great adventure because I have never lived full-time outside of the United States," he told the outlet.

"She was very generous in giving me six years living in my world, so I think it's only fair that I give her at least another six of her living in hers.
"I love Spain and I think your lifestyle is fabulous. Also your ability to live transmitting joy and happiness. It is a beautiful place, the food is extraordinary and the people exude sensitivity and generosity, as well as an iron will to laugh and enjoy. So I'm looking forward to going there."
