Etxebarri (Spanish: Echévarri) is a town and municipality located in the province of Biscay, in the Autonomous Basque Community, in the North of Spain.
The town and municipality got the present name on 13 January 2005, officially changing the previous name "Etxebarri, Doneztebeko Elizatea" (Spanish: Echévarri, Anteiglesia de San Esteban) for the sake of simplification. It translates as "new home/house" (etxe "home", barri "new"). Prior to the introduction of Standard Basque, the town's name was spelled Echevarri.
Etxebarri has an area of 33.38 square kilometres and a population of 11,563 (2019), with a density of 346 inhabitants/km2.
Being so close to Bilbao (1.5 kilometres) has had a direct effect on Etxebarri. Until a few decades ago, Etxebarri was a small nucleus in which its rural population worked in industrial areas. Both the population and the industrial land increased considerably because of the congestion of Bilbao and the need for space for the installation of industries. Therefore, there was a significant increase in new population in the locality. In addition, since 2004, the Metro Bilbao underground train has reached Etxebarri. In fact, the threshold stipulated for the town in 2012 is about 10,000 inhabitants. It has a metro station of the Bilbao Metro rapid transit service and a train station of the commuter rail service Euskotren Trena.

Young, lively white, poured from a height to whet the appetite.
Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.
