Habitar una vivienda de interés social en la periferia urbana. Espinosa Ortiz, Fabricio Vieyra, Antonio Garibay Orozco, Claudio This paper analyzes the experience of inhabiting a housing estate located in the peri-urban area of Morelia, Michoacan, Mexico. While we acknowledge the complexity behind the study of inhabiting practices we focus on the analysis of three dimensions: the first one is associated with dwellers and how they use their experiences to value their current dwellings in relation to their previous places of residence. The second dimension is related to the analysis of living in a housing estate and the impacts of these experiences on the everyday lives of dwellers. The third dimension offers an analysis of the relationships among neighbors and the use of public spaces on the part of dwellers. This is conducted through interviews, field visits, participant observation and a questionnaire. The goal of this research is to understand how the inhabitants of a given place recreate — through narrative descriptions— the everyday experiences of inhabiting a housing estate in the peri-urban area of a medium-sized city. El presente artículo busca analizar la experiencia de habitar en un fraccionamiento de la periferia urbana de Morelia, Michoacán, México. Si bien reconocemos la complejidad de estudiar el habitar cotidiano aquí nos delimitamos al análisis de tres dimensiones, la primera se refiere a cómo los habitantes a partir de sus propias narrativas valoran su vivienda y fraccionamiento actuales en relación a sus experiencias de habitar su vivienda y su fraccionamiento anteriores, la segunda se refiere al análisis del impacto que tiene en la vida cotidiana de los habitantes el vivir en una vivienda de interés social emplazada en un fraccionamiento de la periferia de la ciudad, y la tercera, al análisis de las relaciones vecinales y al uso que los habitantes le dan al espacio público del fraccionamiento. Lo anterior se analiza a través de entrevistas, recorridos de observación, observación participante y la aplicación de un cuestionario, con ello se busca entender la manera en que los habitantes del lugar recrean narrativamente la experiencia de habitar cotidianamente una vivienda de interés social en un fraccionamiento de la periferia urbana de una ciudad de tamaño medio.
