Located just south of the bustling metropolis of Casablanca, Bouskoura offers a unique blend of industry and nature. Bouskoura is a city of contrasts. It is known for its industrial activity, yet it also boasts a beautiful forest that draws visitors from Casablanca. In 2014, Bouskoura’s population was recorded at 103,026. By 2020, it had grown to 138,699, showcasing the city’s continuous development. Bouskoura’s growth hasn’t come without its challenges. Reports indicate that the Bouskoura region faces significant pollution issues. The once vibrant Bouskoura wadi, a waterway that once supported diverse wildlife, now suffers from industrial waste. The nearby Houbous Médiouna landfill further exacerbates air pollution concerns. Despite these challenges, Bouskoura remains a fascinating place. It is home to two Hassan mosques, both funded by the Saudi Arabian king. A small, long-delayed tunnel project under the railway promises further development, adding another layer of intrigue to Bouskoura’s story. The political landscape of Bouskoura is equally interesting. Taha Bouchaib has served as the city’s president since 2021. He also represents the province in the House of Representatives. The city council reflects a diverse range of voices. This is Bouskoura, a city grappling with growth, pollution, and the complexities of progress while retaining a unique character.
