"having social roots"
Explanation:
Following Patricia Rosas' valuable hint - If this is for Spain, I think you will need to invent a special term, like "having social roots" - this is the legal situation ...
Una de las aportaciones más destacadas del citado Reglamento es la nueva regulación, en el artículo 45.2.b) del mismo, dentro de las autorizaciones de residencia temporal por circunstancias excepcionales, de la autorización de residencia temporal por razones del denominado arraigo social, en desarrollo de lo establecido en el artículo 31.3 de la Ley Orgánica 4/2000.
I.- De conformidad con los artículos 31.1, 3 y 4 de la Ley Orgánica 4/2000 y 45.2.b) de su Reglamento, se podrá conceder una autorización de residencia por razones de arraigo al trabajador extranjero que acredite la permanencia continuada en España durante un periodo mínimo de tres años ...
