Five years after the eruption of the La Palma volcano, part of those affected continues to wait for a definitive solution for their housing. The reconstruction of the affected areas and the housing conditions remain part of the pending issues for some families.
One of the figures that has been published places around 40 families who still live in container homes, although this data must be verified with the administrations and the affected individuals themselves.
Families still without a definitive home
Access to housing continues to be one of the main problems for those who lost their homes as a result of the eruption.
The reconstruction, five years later
The situation of those affected is not limited to the reconstruction of the properties. It also includes the commitments made by the administrations and the housing solutions that remain pending for some families.
