Palma markets itself in the USA — but who is the city really for?

Answer

How could increased tourism from the USA affect Palma's everyday life and neighborhoods?

In Palma, everyday pressures like traffic on major routes, morning deliveries blocking streets, and rents rising as flats are converted into holiday lets are highlighted concerns. The idea is that higher visitor spending does not automatically reduce these burdens and could worsen them in some areas. The reality depends on how growth is managed and supported locally.
