There's much more traffic than the residents. A lot of people work but doesn't live in Gibraltar, a lot of tourists and loads of people crossing the border just to buy cheap cigarettes. There are usually queues outside every cigarette shop. It's complete chaos at the border and nothing like any rail crossing I've ever seen.

Gibraltar has seen as many as 12M yearly tourists in its prepandemic peak https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tourism_in_Gibraltar

For comparison, New York used to get 66M yearly tourists https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/13/nyregion/nyc-tourism-covi...
