Displaced Palestinian-Syrian refugees continue to launch cries for help over the dire socio-economic conditions they have been made to endure. A swift upsurge in rental fees, estimated at an average of $150 to $350, along with high unemployment rates have made the situation far worse.
Al-Zahira, Al-Maidan, Jaramana, Qudsaya, and Khan Dannun represent the major destinations for the displaced Palestinian refugees.
A study shows that a minimum cost of living in Syria exceeds a monthly rate of 171,000 SL while monthly wages barely rise above 40,000 SL ($80).
The study also indicates that 29% of expenses are allotted to food while 28% are allocated to housing. 9.3% and 7.8% of the budget go respectively to transportation and clothing. The remaining resources cover fees for household items, communication networks, medical treatment, and education, among a handful of other basic needs.
