Housing under construction.
Access to housing remains the main concern of the Basque population, as evidenced by the Deustobarometer Social, which is the most noticeable (50%), with a clear upward trend over the past year. Moreover, citizens give a poor rating to public housing policies, with an average of 3.8 out of 10.
Along with housing, the price of the shopping basketis the second concern among researchers (cited by 40% of the people surveyed), while health concerns continue to decline (33%) and the recovery of Osakidetza's valuation (5.4%) and confidence in the public health system (6.1%) has been consolidated.
The study also notes that in the last six months there has been a decrease in concern for security and migration. Citizens adopt security policies (5) and increase confidence in the Ertzaintza (5.5). More than half of the population also believes that the autonomous police are working properly to protect public order and guarantee freedom of expression in incidents involving the extreme right.
With regard to demographics, the Deustobarometer indicates that the low birth rate is mainly associated with problems of labour reconciliation and low wages for young people , in addition to the price of housing. There is a strong social consensus (70 per cent) in favour of increasing public aid to boost birth and growth, and 69 per cent believe that social pressure requires greater involvement than parents.
Although more than halfof the population uses AI tools , concern and mistrust prevail. Most would not trust Artificial Intelligence to manage critical decisions, and demand strict regulation of their use.
Finally, thereport notes that one in four young people of Generation Z have a positive perception of Francoism, considering that it brought economic stability and social welfare, which is particularly important in the context of the debate on democratic memory.
