Rosas (or Las Rosas) is an administrative neighborhood of Madrid belonging to the district of San Blas-Canillejas.
It comprises part of the Ensanche Este de San Blas,[1] to the west of the M-40 as well as large non-urbanised plots to the east of the latter motorway, including a sepiolite extraction site, whose mining below the phreatic level has induced the formation of a series of small lagoons.[2] The former athletics stadium known as La Peineta (currently the Metropolitano Stadium, the home football stadium of Atlético Madrid) is located in the neighborhood.[3]
It has an area of 9.388024 km2 (3.624736 sq mi).[4] As of 1 March 2020, it has a population of 31,953.[5]
