Municipal-level Government Aid, Flood (DANA) Impacts, Unemployment, and 2023 Election Results — Province of Valencia (Spain) Description This dataset compiles municipality-level information for the Province of Valencia (València), Spain, combining: government aid records requested, granted, and paid in relation to damages associated with the DANA flood event (29/10/2024), unemployment totals before and after the event (2022 vs. 2024), hydrological risk classification and the associated watercourse/tributary affecting each area, and political context from the 2023 municipal elections, including party acronyms, vote counts, and the governing party and government type (simple majority, absolute majority, or coalition). The dataset is structured at the municipality–party level for election variables (i.e., each municipality can appear in multiple rows—one per party list—while municipality-level attributes such as population, area, unemployment, risk, and aid amounts may repeat across those rows). Purpose and potential uses The dataset can be used to: analyze the relationship between disaster risk/impact and public funding (requested vs granted vs paid), compare labor-market conditions pre- and post-event, study potential associations between political outcomes and resource allocation, support geospatial or regional analysis by comarca within Valencia.
