Fire near Porto Pi: What the blaze reveals about safety in Palma

Answer

How safe are apartment buildings in Palma when a fire starts on a terrace?

Terraces can become a fire risk if grills, outdoor sockets, electrical faults or flammable items are left unchecked. In older Palma buildings, narrow stairwells and limited fire protection can make evacuation harder if smoke spreads quickly. Regular checks, working smoke alarms and clear escape routes make a real difference.
