Because it's fontified with that property.

Use a plain text buffer to get rid of fontification or switch that off (launch GNU Emacs with -Q)! You can also switch to a font that has U+00A0 defined or create a fontset in which this character is defined as coming from a font with NO-BREAK SPACE.
I get, for example, in X11:
position: 206 of 6832 (3%), column: 0
character: (displayed as ) (codepoint 160, #o240, #xa0)
preferred charset: iso-8859-1 (Latin-1 (ISO/IEC 8859-1))
code point in charset: 0xA0
syntax: . which means: punctuation
category: .:Base, b:Arabic, j:Japanese, l:Latin
buffer code: #xC2 #xA0
file code: #xA0 (encoded by coding system iso-latin-1-unix)
display: by this font (glyph code)
xft:-b&h-Lucida Sans Typewriter-normal-normal-normal-*-10-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1 (#xAC)
hardcoded face: nobreak-space
Character code properties: customize what to show
name: NO-BREAK SPACE
old-name: NON-BREAKING SPACE
general-category: Zs (Separator, Space)
decomposition: (noBreak 32) (noBreak ' ')
There are text properties here:
charset iso-8859-1
