The low island It has not stopped losing population in recent years. The worst part is taken The Silos, with 99 fewer neighbors since 2020; followed by The tankwith 39 less, and Buena Vista del Norte, with a drop of 33. This region is the only one that evolves in the opposite direction than the rest of the island and in 2022 it had less population than in 1960, before the tourism boom. Between 1994 and 2014, these localities of the northwest of Tenerife They have already lost 2,814 inhabitants.

lope afonso stressed that “the complicated orography of our Island means that there are areas, such as Isla Baja, which over the years have suffered isolation in relation to the rest of the territories of Tenerife». A situation that “has worsened significantly in recent times, mainly due to the poor state of road communications, which has an impact on the depopulation of the municipalities that make up this region, as well as a depressed socioeconomic situation.”

Afonso clarifies that the main objective of the People’s Party is to “launch a series of measures integrated into a specific action plan for this environment that contribute to improving mobility in the area and making this region a more attractive place to live and invest”.

The candidate for the insular Presidency claimed the importance of the Cabildo to promote policies that “guarantee equal opportunities for all Tenerife, wherever they live”. In his opinion, “the will of the PP project is to return to the Cabildo that leading role in the insular area, exercising its structuring function of the territory and social cohesion».
