Strolling through the area, especially in spring, you are likely to come across women whitewashing the facades of the houses and trimming back any weeds at the bottom of the wall, making sure that there is no dirt or rubbish to pollute the streets. The responsibility for maintaining this level of cleanliness rests entirely with the inhabitants, each being responsible for the state of the street in front of their house. There are no bye-laws to enforce this, simply the habit of the people of Frigiliana since time immemorial to keep their streets and house fronts spotless.
