Balearic Islands over 1.25 million — How prepared is Mallorca really?

Answer

Does population growth in Mallorca also create opportunities?

It can, if the island plans for it properly. More residents can support local shops, schools, services and a more stable year-round economy instead of one driven only by the tourist season. The challenge is to make sure the benefits are shared and the pressure does not fall too heavily on the same places.
