Recent judicial data reveals a persistent housing emergency in Spain, characterized by massive evictions and a critical lack of effective solutions. The high volume of rental evictions indicates that current tenant laws fail to protect residents against speculation, while mortgage foreclosures are rising sharply, echoing the severity of past crises. This trend confirms that housing is currently treated as a financial asset rather than a fundamental human right, leaving thousands of families vulnerable to displacement. The relevance of open data lies in its ability to expose systemic failures through transparent, quantifiable evidence. By making judicial statistics publicly available, open data allows civil society to verify institutional narratives and hold authorities accountable for policy gaps. It transforms abstract administrative records into tangible proof of social injustice, enabling activists and researchers to demonstrate the real-world impact of housing market deregulation and the disproportionate burden borne by specific regions. Ultimately, these figures serve as a call to action, highlighting the urgent need for structural reforms such as a moratorium on evictions without alternative housing and increased public housing stock. Open data provides the essential foundation for demanding legislative changes, ensuring that decisions are based on verified social realities rather than political convenience. It empowers communities to challenge the normalization of displacement and advocates for policies that prioritize human dignity over financial interests.
