When the Shared Flat Room Becomes a Luxury: Palma Under Pressure

Answer

How expensive is a room in a shared flat in Mallorca right now?

Room prices in Mallorca have risen enough to put real pressure on students, apprentices and many workers. In Palma, a shared room is currently around the mid-500-euro range per month on average, which is hard to absorb on local wages. For many people, that means cutting back on other spending or looking farther away from the city.
