More than 55,500 people have benefited from Morocco’s national housing assistance program as of July 9, Government Spokesperson Mustapha Baitas said on Thursday.
The program had recorded 55,512 beneficiaries, 47% of whom are women, Baitas said at a press briefing following the weekly cabinet meeting, adding that the majority – 76.3% – are residents in Morocco, while 23.7% are Moroccans living abroad.
Fez tops the list of cities with the most beneficiaries, followed by Berrechid, Meknes, Kenitra, Casablanca, El Jadida, Benslimane, Settat, Oujda, and Berkane.
The number of applicants has reached 177,344 across Morocco’s 12 regions, with 37% under the age of 35 and an average applicant age of 41, Baitas said.
About 62% of applications concern homes priced between 300,000 and 700,000 dirhams, while the remaining 38% are for homes costing less than 300,000 dirhams.
The housing support program, launched for the 2024–2028 period, offers direct financial assistance to first-time homebuyers. Eligible buyers receive 100,000 dirhams for homes priced under 300,000 dirhams, and 70,000 dirhams for homes priced between 300,000 and 700,000 dirhams, taxes included.
