hm (hectometre)

Explanation:
Given the position of this item in the data (between km and bloque) I deduce that hm is the 'decimal' part of the km.

Example: if the property is at kilometer 7.8, the km is '7' and the hm is '8'

Note that 'Km' and 'Hm' in the ST should read 'km' and 'hm'.

Yes, there is an evident error in item 31.

Note to reference poster

Asker: Thanks a lot for the link. It's an official translation, as far as I can see. But I don't agree with item 31, "Núcleo/Diseminado". The slash sign should indicate that they are two different, even opposite, things. Something like "Densely populated/Sparsely populated", or maybe "Urban centre/Suburb".
