Life-threatening fall in Palma: What happens when children fall from windows?

Answer

Are older apartments in Palma more likely to have unsafe windows?

Older apartments can carry a higher risk if windows, balconies or fittings have not been updated for years. In Palma, many residential buildings were not designed with modern child-safety standards in mind, so maintenance and retrofitting matter. That does not mean every old apartment is unsafe, but it does make regular checks more important.
