Colectivos desfavorecidos
I'm having another mental block, folks!
Please, can someone get me out of this "atolladero". How do you translate: colectivos desfavorecidos (tercera edad, minusválidos, población reclusa, etc.)? Gracias por adelantado.

Gracias, Rusty. I used "the less fortunate".

Atolladero de "atollar" = atascar, atascadero.
I learnt it from the title of a film. It's one of my favourite words.

I haven't looked, but I don't think atrolladero exists...
Atolladero like Ambarina explained means atascadero. Se usa para implicar problema. |

Sí, desfavorecidos o menos favorecidos. ¿Por qué? ¿Cómo se dice por esos lares?
