Residents denounce overtourism which drives up rental prices. Stickers have now multiplied in several cities in Spain, including Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia.

The city of Malaga recently rejected the adoption of legislation that defined the rental market as "under pressure", which would have allowed authorities to implement rent caps. In Paris, rent control was made possible on an experimental basis by the ELAN law of 2018. It prohibits landlords from asking tenants for an amount greater than a given sum, varying depending on the state of the market.
