Residential Segregation in Mixed Cities in Spain. The Case of Almería
Residential Segregation in MIxed Cities in Spain. The Case of Almería

Summary/Abstract: This article studies the importance of international theoretical and empirical analyses and the extent to which they can be applied to explain residential segregation of foreign immigrants in one of the most multi-ethnic areas of Spain, the province of Almería. To find out the processes leading to segregation, we have analysed urban growth and the context of reception as the key elements in designing immigrant incorporation. The results show that the main cause of segregation is ethno-discrimination based on native residential preferences for the endogroup.
