How much is a Spanish pension?
The average monthly pension in Spain is around €1,200 (2023), though it varies significantly based on contributions and type. For many elderly people like Maricarmen, this income can be insufficient to cover rising housing costs, especially in cities like Madrid, making them particularly vulnerable to eviction.
