Alcobendas is a municipality of Spain located in the Community of Madrid.
It forms an urban continuum with the neighbouring municipality of San Sebastián de los Reyes. The affluent residential area of La Moraleja lies within the municipal limits, segregated from the main urban nucleus by the A-1 highway. The municipality features the Valdelatas nature reserve and a light industrial estate. It also houses a basketball museum organised by the Pedro Ferrándiz Foundation, where the FIBA Hall of Fame is located.
Once a working-class area, Alcobendas has become one of the most economically affluent municipalities in the Madrid metropolitan area.
