Inner Suburbs

“Inner suburbs” refers to areas located beyond the inner city but before the peripheral regions. In the United States, the inner suburbs had their greatest growth after World War II , and in Latin American cities during the 1960s and 1970s. In general terms, cities are undergoing a back‐to‐the‐city process: the central areas are being repopulated and inner suburbs are growing faster than the far peripheries. However, the inner suburbs are facing a process of decline; aging of both population and urban infrastructure, and deterioration and devaluation of housing are some of the most common problems in these territories. They require attention from both local and national governments primarily aimed at rehabilitation and revitalization.
