So what’s the criteria for getting to live by the beach then? Is “I was here for a long time but didn’t want to buy anything” a valid reason?

In line with rest of the human history, the criteria will be set by the ones holding the most power in that region. In this age, it would be the Barcelona government. And if it is like other western governments, it will be a tussle between moneyed interests and populist sentiments.
