An “urban pressure zone” is considered to be an area where there is significant difficulty in accessing housing, due to a lack of or inadequate housing supply in relation to existing needs, or because the available properties are of a higher value than those that can be afforded by the majority of households without them being overburdened with housing costs in relation to their income.

The delimitation/identification of these zones is carried out by the Municipal Assembly.
