Answer

Can people live in abandoned buildings in Mallorca during winter?

Some people do use empty buildings as temporary shelter, especially when they have no stable housing options. In Mallorca, that tends to happen more often in the low season, when pressure on emergency accommodation and support services can be higher. It is not a safe or legal long-term solution, but it can reflect a wider housing problem.
