Economy
The municipality's economy is mainly based on agriculture and livestock, with an industry closely linked to the primary sector and services primarily concentrated in the capital city. This capital was known until the mid-twentieth century as Seoane, although the present name of the municipality previously had this name.
One of the attractions in the town for summer is the municipal sports complex Castro de Seoane, equipped with various sports facilities among which are modern pools specifically designed for the enjoyment of children.
The 10th of each month marks the fair or market, with a significant recovery in recent years.

Famous quotes containing the word economy:
“The aim of the laborer should be, not to get his living, to get “a good job,” but to perform well a certain work; and, even in a pecuniary sense, it would be economy for a town to pay its laborers so well that they would not feel that they were working for low ends, as for a livelihood merely, but for scientific, or even moral ends. Do not hire a man who does your work for money, but him who does it for love of it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Everyone is always in favour of general economy and particular expenditure.”
—Anthony, Sir Eden (1897–1977)
“Wise men read very sharply all your private history in your look and gait and behavior. The whole economy of nature is bent on expression. The tell-tale body is all tongues. Men are like Geneva watches with crystal faces which expose the whole movement.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
