Abstract

Since the 1990s, the intensification of international migratory flows produced a fast growth of foreign residents in cities of Southern Europe. In Barcelona, this phenomena has been especially intense since the end of the 1990s, increasing the foreign population by nine times reaching over 15% of the total population today. In this work we analyze the settlement of foreign born population of in the territory, using the data of the of 2001 Census. The sociodemographic characteristics of the migrant together with a situation marked by a first arrival in the city are understood as the main explanatory factors of an insertion process characterized by a wide variety of situations, in which, the housing market and the socioeconomic hierarchy of the neighborhoods of Barcelona explain the models of insertion, combining the characteristics of the territory with those of the population that lives on it.
