Answer

What kind of affordable housing is Mallorca planning?

Mallorca is working on permanently affordable housing projects, including construction plans for several thousand reduced-price units. Access is meant to favour people who have lived on the islands for a minimum period, with priority for municipal residents in some cases. The success of these projects will depend on how well they are delivered and protected from later diversion into the holiday market.
