Savills Aguirre Newman Suggests that Málaga Must Double Its Supply of Student Housing

29 August 2019

Málaga currently has 1,200 places for non-residential students, according to Savills Aguirre Newman. The consultancy believes that the city needs to double that figure. At the moment, developers are working on six new projects, with a total of 900 new places, to be ready by 2022.

The University of Malaga has around 35,000 students, including full-time and part-time, and many of them come from other parts of Spain or even abroad. The recent long-term increase in residential rates is beginning to deter some people from carrying out their studies in the city.
