Abstract
Socioeconomic residential segregation (SRS) can be considered one of the main obstacles for an adequate urban integration in Latin American cities, since it is related to different social problems and contributes to their intergenerational reproduction. This article carries out an exploratory research on the links between SRS and the incorporation into the workplace of the population in San Carlos de Bariloche city, Argentina. Through a combination of multivariate analysis techniques and data from the last population census (2010), we obtain a typology that classifies the neighborhoods of the city and, then, we analyze the labor integration of the population located there. The results are in line with previous work from Latin America, which shows that those who live in segregated environments tend to have greater difficulties in accessing the workplace and, with it, in achieving social integration and economic progress. On the other hand, part of the evidence not only seems to contradict the traditional thesis of spatial mismatch or neighborhood effect, but also shows some of the limits of public policies used to influence urban integration if they are only limited to give access to housing and basic services.
