A daunting challenge. This is the reality for young Canarians seeking to rent a home, as they are unable to secure a flat even if they allocate their entire salary towards it. Moreover, the situation is even more dire; even if they devoted their complete wages to rent, they would still fall short financially, as the average rental cost in the Archipelago exceeds the earnings of a young individual by 410 euros. This situation renders the aspiration for independence an utterly elusive dream for many.
