  "account": "In Spain's major cities, there is a lot of room for more urban development. New neighborhoods being planned feature low-rise buildings, wide avenues, and undeveloped land, resulting in a missed opportunity cost in a housing shortage context marked by a significant disconnect between new household creation and housing availability. The Banco de España believes that intensifying cities is a way to partially alleviate the situation. For years, cities and the real estate sector have been discussing this issue. The supervisory bank puts figures to the phenomenon in its latest annual report, calculating that more intensive use of urbanizable land could construct between 500,000 and 1.2 million additional homes in Spain's six major metropolitan areas, a potential concentrated in Madrid and Barcelona.",
