Legal leap with side effects: What Spain's legalization of around 500,000 people means for Mallorca

Answer

How could the legalization plan affect housing in Mallorca?

Mallorca already faces pressure on accommodation, especially for seasonal workers and people with lower incomes. Without housing support, legal work alone may not be enough to stabilise daily life.
