Break-in at the Ballermann: Why Flamenc Street no longer feels as safe at night

Answer

Why can short-term rentals in Mallorca feel less secure?

Short-term rentals often have changing guests, which can weaken the sense of neighbourhood watch that long-term residents usually create. In some Mallorca areas, that can mean suspicious activity goes unnoticed for longer. Clear house rules and better coordination between neighbours and landlords can improve safety.
