The director of Caritas Mallorca, Esther Romero, stressed that housing is "the epicenter of inequality" in the Balearic Islands. In fact, 49.5% of the people Caritas has assisted in Mallorca lived in shared houses with people with no degree of kinship – 4.4 points above 2024 – and 40.5% in sublet accommodations. This turns the homes where these people reside into "survival spaces", with a "lack of privacy" and where "conflicts deteriorate the physical and mental health of families".</p>]]></description>
