Data from the ‘Atlas de la Vivienda Digna y Sustentable’ highlights a deficit affecting 40.67% of households, or roughly 6.4 million families. While 687,000 households require entirely new homes, the majority suffer from qualitative deficiencies, such as overcrowding and inadequate materials; notably, only 61.7% of households have access to a sewage network. The crisis is particularly severe for young adults, with approximately 2.5 million people aged 25 to 35 unable to live independently. Compounding these issues is a surge in household debt.
