Housing in Asturias, Spain: the empty noise of social media
If you came here looking for data on the price per square metre in Oviedo or the tax treatment of second homes, you had better keep looking. The post that has been circulating under the title "Osfo a esta mqmf que vende casas en asturias?" contains not a single figure, not a single analysis, not a single argument about the property market. What it does contain is a collection of rude comments, a link to TikTok and another to YouTube, and the usual parade of personal attacks.
At a time when housing is one of the major structural problems of the Spanish economy, this kind of empty content is precisely what we do not need. Public debate needs data, not noise. And this conversation is proof that noise still sells better than information.
