| Summary: | During the last decade, Ecuador has witnessed an increase in intra- and extra-continental migratory flows, sparking a discussion around the conditions of economic inclusion and social integration of the immigrant population. This article explores immigrant's access to housing through a qualitative and socio-spatial methodology, using observation, interviews, and mapping tools to analyze La Florida and La Floresta's neighborhoods in the Metropolitan District of Quito. The objective is to expose the differentiated logics that underlie placement processes in terms of location and habitability and analyze phenomena of spatial and residential segregation and self-segregation in both neighborhoods. The study considers access to immigrant housing based on the existing relationship between the land, housing, and rental markets and their relationship with the population that inhabits these spaces and their socioeconomic and migratory conditions. The study demonstrates how the immigrant population's presence in these neighborhoods configures the territorial evolution at a spatial level, the population composition in demographic terms, and the social relations from an actual and symbolic perspective. |
