Residential segregation and clustering dynamics of migrants in the metropolitan area of Barcelona

Abstract: Abstract During the first decade of the 21st century, the Metropolitan Region of Barcelona underwent an enormous demographic transformation following the arrival of more than 300’000 foreign immigrants. The residential patterns resulting from the settlement of the newcomers drastically changed the composition of the human landscape at all territorial levels, both national and local, confronting policy makers and migration managers with the tremendous challenge of managing the increasing population divers… Show more

“…Some evidence of this assertion can be found in this study which further reinforces the point made by Sachi (2005), that Japanese societies have already become heterogeneous and multicultural [40]. Based on the diversity score of the 23 special wards of the Tokyo Metropolitan Area, it is evidence that they can be compared to other recognized culturally diverse cities such as Barcelona [41], Dublin, Limerick, and Cork [36]. However, further indication showed a great homogeneity in areas of western Tokyo; communities such as Okutama town, Hinohara village, and Hinode town had nearly 3% diversity which, when compared with the overall average of 20.17% on the diversity index, portrays contrasts to the 23 special wards.…”

“…Scholars, however, caution about the general labeling of population or pan-ethnic groups, because within a population there are distinct traits and characteristics of members [41][42][43][44][45]. This study exposed such situations where the use of the broad term "foreigners" may suggest potential vulnerabilities or lack of awareness, if the responses to questions of information sources, knowledge of evacuation sites, participation in disaster drills, and language used for information gathering are considered.…”

“…Only the more prosperous neighbourhoods, together with some of the most recent private housing estates, continue to show moderate percentages of immigrants. In this setting, notable for its considerable dispersion, the values for residential segregation are generally moderate or even low for most groups of immigrants (Bayona & López, 2011; Galeano & Bayona, 2018; Martori et al, 2006), despite a wide range of situations depending on national origins.…”

“…Les ciutats europees han experimentat durant els darrers anys un creixement de les desigualtats socials i de la diferenciació socioresidencial (Tammaru et al, 2016;Musterd et al, 2017), i Barcelona no n'és una excepció. D'una banda, trobem que es revaloritzen els espais centrals, on es produeixen processos de gentrificació i arriben alhora migrants de categories socials altes (López-Gay, 2017, 2018Domínguez et al, 2018); de l'altra, s'observa un progressiu desplaçament cap a la perifèria de les àrees degradades, zones especialment vulnerables (Porcel, 2016) on gradualment s'ha anat incorporant un volum considerable de població immigrant (Galeano i Bayona, 2018). A més, a causa de la creixent globalització, es produeix una intensificació de la polarització de l'estructura sociolaboral (Sorando i Leal, 2019), que es veu reflectida en el territori (Rubiales, 2017).…”

“…Pel que fa a la distribució territorial, és desigual, reflex de la segregació existent entre els diversos orígens a Barcelona (Galeano i Bayona, 2018). Al Raval, dos de cada tres alumnes estan vinculat a la migració internacional, amb percentatges també per sobre del 50% al Poble-sec, el Gòtic i Sant Pere, Santa Caterina i la Ribera.…”
