Living in a motorhome as a response to the housing crisis in South Tyrol
Original source: südtirol.ORF.at

Rental prices in Bolzano have risen by 28% over the past year, making housing unaffordable for many workers. A 29-year-old delivery courier, H. A., has been living in a motorhome for three years due to the inability to rent an apartment. Real estate agents forecast a shortage of over 3,000 apartments by 2028, while city authorities acknowledge the issue but point to long-term projects.

Montecatini Terme considers targeted parking bans for camper vans

The municipality of Montecatini Terme is evaluating the introduction of targeted parking bans for camper vans in specific parking lots due to prolonged stays. Local police, carabinieri, and state police conduct regular checks, resulting in fines. However, eradicating the phenomenon is difficult: vehicles return to the same spots days after inspections. Simple parking without lowering stabilizer legs does not constitute illegal camping.
