Abstract


This article aims at fulfilling three objectives. First of all, stress the importance of neighbourhoods for individual life outcomes, by way of their relationship with other relevant spaces of socialization and with social exclusion processes. Secondly, measure immigrants’ residential segregation in Madrid’s Metropolitan Area, in four of the five dimensions proposed by Denton and Massey (1988), together with other measures less frequently used.
