| Summary: | Within the current concern about the inequalities in the settlement process of migrants in cities, this paper uses a quantitative methodological approach that addresses the characteristics of their dwellings and types of habitat or urban environments to analyze the socio-housing conditions of those coming from neighboring countries and Peru who are currently living in the city of Buenos Aires. To this end, this research uses data released by the 2010 National Population and Housing Census, develops statistical indicators that take account of relevant issues and implements a typological model that classifies the spatial units that make up the city into different types of habitat according to construction periods and the production of housing spaces. It is observed that an important number of regional migrants in Buenos Aires are affected by housing deficit and/or should resort to informal means of land access, thus revealing an urban structure that segregates certain social groups and a process marked by the violation of the rights of a large segment of the population. |
