“…In the cases of Brazil and Argentina, for example, the property access model is similar to that operating in Chile, with housing allocation based on socio-economic vulnerability [44]. In Ecuador, successive governments have promoted subsidy-based opportunities such that remittances sent home by Ecuadorians living abroad are directed towards housing acquisition, while in Colombia, the selection criteria include rural people displaced by guerrilla and drug-related conflict [45,46]. All of these are metropolitan solutions that address a dimension of the right to housing but are not suited to the issue of residential demand in tourism spaces.…”

This article exposes the central role played by neoliberal real estate development in the transformation of two lakeside cities in southern Chile. The concept of neoliberal lakeside residentialism addresses the ways in which commercialisation of the natural world in tourism hotspots is comprehensively reshaping the environmentally fragile Andean lake district. Specifically, we hypothesise that this green utopia is rapidly becoming a dystopia as a result of the aggregate effects of real estate development on environmental sustainability. In order to analyse these tensions, we conduct a case study in the districts of Villarrica and Pucón, both located within the Lake Villarrica watershed. There is evidence of territorial metamorphosis of the Araucanía Region as areas popular with tourists are increasingly being closed off by large-scale real estate operations. We find that this “anomalous” rate of urbanisation is indeed affecting sustainability in the territory, both environmental and social, concluding that regulation of these processes is needed in order to preserve both the natural and cultural wealth of the study area.

“…The expansion of the Buenos Aires conurbation and the growing peri-urbanization of social housing in central Mexico indicate that the course charted by urban policy has compounded the problem instead of limiting it in its territorial extension (Lawson et al, 2015;Rodríguez et al, 2020). In the case of central areas, critical populations such as La Roldós in Ecuador or Triángulo de Fenicia in Bogota are examples of how high densification rates do not ensure that inclusion based on residential indicators as an immediate effect (Klaufus, 2010;Álvarez, 2020). The opposite is usually the case.…”

Access to housing, more than an enforceable right, has become a multidimensional problem in Chile. Faced with the impossibility of obtaining housing through subsidies, informal settlements—camps and land grabs—have expanded through the country's different cities since 2019. Given the evident collision with the Sustainable Development Goals (in particular Goal 11) commitments to sustainable cities, the Chilean State has increased its housing budget since 2020 to reactivate investment during the COVID-19 pandemic and expand the housing access alternatives for lower-class families with few possibilities chances of obtaining a bank mortgage. But is it possible to choose housing in contexts like the one described? In addition to environmental difficulties, cities in northern Chile, wedged between the sea and the desert, need to produce a socially sustainable environment in accordance with the requirements of complex, dynamic systems under permanent pressure to generate wellbeing. This manuscript seeks to explore and analyze these tensions in the cities of Iquique and Alto Hospicio, in Chile's Tarapacá Region. They form a dynamic conurbation, where daily mobility and the dispute over access to housing clash with the choice offered by the different subsidy programs and the expansion of camps on the edges of the desert. So, how far or how close is SDG 11 in places like these? Is there a viable alternative for urban sustainability in precarious spaces?
