Arica housing and urban development challenges

Overview

The Chilean Chamber of Construction (CChC) in Arica held the XXI City and Housing Meeting to address significant shortages in social housing and financing. Local authorities from Serviu and Minvu discussed the regional requirement for well-located land and better connectivity, noting that existing railway lines currently act as barriers to residential projects.

According to data presented by the CChC, the regional housing deficit exceeds 15,000 units. The report noted a rise in households unable to secure housing due to financial incapacity, which reached 8,418 in 2025. Furthermore, the deficit for the middle-income sector grew from 5,500 in 2023 to 6,500 in 2025, representing 43% of the total deficit.
