Authorities in Split have unveiled a large-scale housing initiative designed to tackle rising property prices and limited availability, particularly affecting young families and middle-income residents. The project envisions the construction of around 300 apartments, offering more accessible housing options in a city increasingly strained by tourism-driven demand and real estate inflation.
The initiative reflects broader challenges across Croatia’s coastal regions, where housing affordability has become a pressing social and economic issue.
By prioritizing regulated pricing and long-term accessibility, local officials aim to curb the outflow of residents and maintain urban stability.
If successfully implemented, the project could serve as a model for other cities facing similar pressures, balancing tourism growth with the need to ensure sustainable living conditions for local communities.
