In the province of León, Spain, regulations determine when overnight stays in motorhomes or camper vans are allowed.

Authorities remind that sleeping in the vehicle is permitted, but deploying additional equipment is considered camping.

José, father of a 3-month-old baby: 'I bought a caravan because I had nowhere to live. Today we can't afford rent'

On the Spanish island of Mallorca, the housing crisis has forced many residents, including José, a father of a three-month-old, to live in caravans and motorhomes. The average monthly rent on the island is 1,700 euros, unaffordable for many. The makeshift camp of Son Hugo houses over 400 people in 200 motorhomes. Residents are not asking for housing but for a place to park their caravans and basic sanitation.

Manifesto Miñor insists on creating a motorhome park in Gondomar

The political group Manifesto Miñor is urging the Gondomar municipality to equip a motorhome parking area that is already being used informally. According to the group, in August an average of 4-5 motorhomes park there daily, despite the lack of facilities and regulation. The project, proposed by the group in 2016-2017, involves relocating the area next to the bus station and installing water supply and waste disposal. The estimated cost is 25,000 euros. The group also claims the mayor's office has not granted access to project documents, raising suspicions of inaction.
