摘要
The problem of urban segregation has been extensively studied among developed and developing countries. However, in Latin America this phenomenon presents some particularities, such as the role of access to urban infrastructure. Based on data from the latest population census and multivariate analysis techniques, we provide a neighborhood typology for Bariloche, Argentina, which, among other things, enables us to reveal a complex relationship between the socioeconomic level of the population, its residential location, and infrastructure availability. Unlike previous research on Latin American cities, in this case the lowest correlation between these issues seems to indicate that, although urban infrastructure and equipment are important to address urban segregation, public policies should not be limited to only such dimensions.
