The village's traditional economy is based on the production of olives - these are mainly pressed for oil. However many of the younger population work in the nearby city of Jaen.
The patron saint, to whom the church is dedicated, is San Pedro ad vincula (St Peter in chains) after which the annual fiesta in the first week of August is named.
