Arcosur: the project of 22,185 homes to make Zaragoza the exception to the crisis

Access to housing in Spain has become increasingly difficult, with Zaragoza emerging as a more affordable option compared to other major cities. The Bank of Spain's 2025 Annual Report highlights Zaragoza as the city requiring the least effort to buy or rent a home. Local initiatives, particularly in the Arcosur neighborhood, aim to meet housing demand through extensive urban development. Despite the growth, residents express concerns over insufficient essential services and infrastructure. The city government is responding with plans for new schools, healthcare centers, and improved public transport to enhance living conditions in Arcosur.
