Adio, Spania! / Exodul românilor din Spania ajunge la nivel record / Românii pleacă dintr-o economie care, oficial, „duduie”

Despite Spain's economic growth, the Romanian community is shrinking, with many choosing to leave due to declining living conditions. Official statistics indicate a significant drop in the Romanian population, which has fallen from 750,000 in 2013 to potentially below 500,000 in 2026. The main reason for this exodus is not job scarcity but the high cost of living, particularly housing. While Spain attracts new immigrants from Latin America and Morocco, established Eastern European migrants are leaving for better opportunities elsewhere. The economic landscape has changed, making Spain less appealing compared to other EU countries.
