Tenerife's Rental Crisis: Young People Struggle to Find Affordable Homes

Tenerife, Spain – A recent video by content creator Juanma has highlighted the severe housing affordability crisis impacting young people in Tenerife. In the video, Juanma attempts to locate long-term rental properties on a real estate website with a strict budget of 500 euros. His search across the island yielded only two results. One property, listed at 500 euros, lacked any accompanying photographs, raising questions about its condition. The second, priced at an unusually low 120 euros, was dismissed by Juanma as likely a garage or an error, indicating it was not a viable living space. Juanma expressed frustration over the situation, emphasizing the difficulty for young individuals to secure independent housing. He critically noted that expecting rent to consume half of one's salary is "barbaric in a civilized world," underscoring the unsustainable financial burden faced by many. The video has resonated with viewers, sparking a wide discussion in the comments section about the causes and potential solutions to the island's escalating rental costs.
