Although this Toledo neighborhood created in the 70s was named after the Dehesa de Benquerencia on which it was built, it has always been popularly known as "El Polígono" since this was one of its first uses. Although citizen participation has decreased in recent years, it is a neighborhood that has always had an image of a united community and good coexistence of up to 55 nationalities.
