A spatial point pattern analysis of public and private urban social facilities in Barcelona. A balanced and equitable model?
The expansion of privately provided social facilities has significantly transformed urban service landscapes, rising concerns regarding equity and territorial cohesion. This study investigates whether public and private secondary schools, libraries, and sports facilities in Barcelona exhibit distinct spatial logics, and how these patterns correspond to neighbourhood socioeconomic conditions. Moving beyond conventional area-based approaches, we em…
Mapping Urban Environmental Stress in Barcelona: A Multivariate Approach using GWPCA
This study develops a spatially explicit Environmental Stress Index (ESI) for Barcelona, integrating six key environmental dimensions (air pollution, noise, thermal stress, population density, park accessibility, and green cover) across 1,068 census tracts. Using Geographically Weighted Principal Component Analysis, the analysis captures local spatial heterogeneity in environmental stress and derives location-specific weights to construct a multi…
Landscapes of thermal inequality: Exploring patterns of climate justice across multiple spatial scales in Spain
We investigate thermal inequality in Barcelona, Bilbao, Madrid, Murcia, and Sevilla. • Links between heat exposure and the baseline predictors hinge on the specificities of local context. • Education and population density appear to be consistently significant predictors of thermal inequality. Over the last four decades, global temperatures have seen a generalized, long-term increase, and Europe is at the forefront of this trend, with temperature…
Living alone and electoral behavior. A contextual approach looking at single-person households in southern Europe
According to the background literature, there has been a significant increase recently in single-person households. However, few studies have analyzed the socio-economic characteristics of single-person households, and, to our knowledge, no analysis linking this type of household with electoral geography has yet been carried out. This paper proposes a socio-territorial approach to studying single-person households in the two largest cities in And…
Subsidised private education and public education. A reflex of the neighbourhood inequalities in Seville (Southern Spain)
The promotion of local welfare systems through the development of social infrastructures: An analysis of the urban agendas in Spain
The aim of this article is to analyse the extent to which Urban Agendas (UA), as tools at the service of the Integrated Sustainable Urban Development Model (ISUDM), contribute to the development of Local Welfare Systems. In order to analyse this issue and evaluate its impact, the focus is placed on social infrastructures. In addition, this work analyses the possible differences between municipalities based on a series of key variables, such as in…
Income and immigrant segregation in urban Spain
Over the last few decades, socio-spatial disparities in urban Europe have developed in two key ways. On one hand, income inequality has increased worldwide, and this trend has been reflected in growing economic/income residential segregation. Meanwhile, there has been an unprecedented inflow of immigrants to Europe, especially in the last decade. As most existing studies in this field in Europe focus on larger issues, not only is our knowledge of…
Social Infrastructure in Southern Europe: A Diagnostic Tool for Socio‐Territorial Vulnerability in Public Policies
The dominant neoliberal management model in major European cities has led to a growing trend toward socio‐economic inequality, with its spatial dimensions highlighting clear contradictions. These social contradictions affect over a quarter of the Spanish population, particularly in the region of Andalusia (Southern Spain), with certain neighborhoods in the cities of Seville and Málaga containing a high percentage of vulnerable individuals. These …
Ethnic closure and immigrant residential segregation in Spanish working-class neighbourhoods
Given the difficulties of integration of the immigrant population and the demographic importance that this population is set to have in European society, this research uses an initial territorial approach and a subsequent qualitative analysis to study the internal residential dynamics of immigrants in five Spanish working-class neighbourhoods with a significant presence of foreign-born people. The analysis focuses on the role that ethnic prejudic…
Social infrastructures and socio-economic vulnerability: A socio-territorial integration study in Spanish urban contexts
The growing processes of the socio-economic inequality resulting from the neoliberal political model are evident in large Spanish cities, with a spatial dimension that allows us to visualise its contradictions with great clarity. These social contradictions are particularly marked among the most vulnerable and foreign population groups. For this reason, the study of the spaces and services termed Social Infrastructures (SI), as facilities which f…
Local-scale residential concentration and income inequalities of the main foreign-born population groups in the Spanish urban space. Reaffirming the model of a divided city
This study presents a spatial analysis of suburban inequalities (residential concentration and income inequalities) among the main foreign-born population groups resident in Spain (Italians, Britons, Chinese, Moroccans and Romanians) in Madrid and Barcelona. Through a local spatial approach at census tract level, a number of relevant issues are highlighted, including the existence, both in Madrid and in Barcelona, of a divided space that shows a …
Social status and air quality in Barcelona: A socio-ecological approach
During the last two decades, many studies have described the effects of air pollution in urban areas. This paper analyses the spatial patterns of the main air pollutants in the city of Barcelona, i.e. nitrogen dioxide (NO2), fine particulates of less than 2.5μm (PM2.5) and coarse particulates of 10μm (PM10), and explores the factors associated with air quality in relation to the social and environmental characteristics of each area of the city us…
Measuring residential segregation in multi‐ethnic and unequal European cities
Immigration flows and social inequalities reflect increased social and multi‐ethnic segregation in contemporary urban Europe. For a better understanding of these processes, the present study investigates the main strengths of the multi‐group residential indices, testing sensitivity and reliability under different metropolitan contexts in five European countries. These indices focus on different research dimensions and approach multi‐group residen…
Perception of Health and Well-being Among the Chinese Immigrant Population in Seville (Spain): Does Territorial Concentration Matter
This study analyzes the relationship between the territorial concentration of the Chinese immigrant population and their perception of health and well-being in Seville, a city in southern Europe, where this ethnic community has seen one of the fastest growth rates in recent times. An ethnographic design and a merging strategy by data transformation were adopted. The results show that there is a greater perception of good health and well-being amo…

Integración o inserción? Evolución de la localización residencial del inmigrante en dos áreas metropolitanas del sur de Europa
El anlisis de los cambios en la localizacin residencial de la poblacin migrante resulta fundamental a la hora de entender el proceso de segregacin residencial que experimentan a nivel metropolitano. Incluso, segn el modelo de asimilacin espacial, la eleccin de vecindario puede considerarse un indicador de su grado de integracin en la sociedad de acogida. Partiendo del anlisis espacial de dichos cambios residenciales en dos reas metropolitanas de …
Social discourse, housing search and residential segregation: The social determinants of recent economic migrants’ residential mobility in Seville
Immigrants’ neighbourhood choices are key to understanding today’s dominant socio-territorial dynamics, especially in urban areas. We analysed the factors involved in the housing search at the early stages of the economic migrant influx in Seville, Spain (Andalusia region, Europe’s southern border) and their impact on the development of residential segregation in this city. Using a qualitative methodology approach based on focus groups, unstructu…
Contextual factors and prejudice at the beginning of the migrant influx: The Moroccan case in Seville, Spain
Studies addressing contextual factors associated with anti‐immigrant prejudice have focused on out‐group size and rapid demographic changes in receiving locations. However, the territorial concentration and distribution of ethnic minorities at a local and intraurban level has received little attention. We analyse the relationship between emerging territorial concentration points—alongside other contextual variables—by Moroccans and receiving soci…
