HIBAPRESS – Salé
A number of families in the city of Salé are experiencing increasing difficulties in obtaining housing, in light of the rising prices of renting apartments and houses in several neighborhoods of the city. This has prompted some citizens to resort to unconventional housing options, including renting garages and converting them into living spaces.
This phenomenon, according to statements circulating among the city's residents, comes in the context of rising rental prices coinciding with demolition operations that have affected a number of buildings and informal settlements in Salé. This has pushed some affected families to search for temporary alternatives at prices that are, as much as possible, commensurate with their financial capabilities.
Citizens find themselves facing a difficult equation: on one hand, the high cost of renting apartments and houses, and on the other hand, limited income and increasing demand for housing. This has made some garages, despite often lacking adequate living conditions, a viable option for families seeking shelter within the city.
