44% and Still Uneasy: Why Mallorca's Water Situation Remains Regionally Critical

Answer

Which parts of Mallorca are most vulnerable to water stress?

The northeast, including the area around Artà, is highlighted as particularly sensitive. There, water retention is more limited and cisterns are often small, so local supplies can tighten faster than in better-connected urban areas. Rural valleys and places with decentralized systems are generally more exposed when rainfall is low.
