Despite of the traditional strong identity of its inhabitants, this historical region has not been able to achieve the necessary legal recognition for its administrative development. The comarca has a total of about 9,000 inhabitants.

Its geography is typical of the Meseta Central. The Sierra de Villuercas, also known as Sierra de Guadalupe is part of this comarca.

The comarca is named after La Villuerca, the highest peak in the range and also the highest point of the greater Montes de Toledo system, an ancient name that has been documented since 1353.
