However, according to trends, t<strong>he average income of the young population is up to 45% lower<\/strong> than before the pandemic, and many of them have not entered anything between March and August.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, as if this weren&#8217;t enough, <strong>youth unemployment in Spain is double the European average<\/strong>. According to Eurostat -the European Union&#8217;s Statistics Office-, almost 41% of young Spaniards are unemployed, more than double the European average of 17.1%. In fact, <strong>Spain is the country with the most unemployment<\/strong> among young people in all of Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Those over 25 are in an even worse situation. Just when they had almost managed to overcome <strong>the crisis of 2008<\/strong>, a global pandemic arrives.
