Short summary
This study assesses landslide risk across the Valencian Community over time using a regional-scale approach. It shows how urban expansion into unsuitable areas has increased exposure. By combining different indicators, we identify where risk is higher and how it evolves. The results support land-use planning and help decision-makers reduce potential impacts.
