    ¿El nuevo Comas? Trayectorias residenciales de los residentes de los edificios multifamiliares de altura en El Retablo, Comas
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2024-11-28)
    The presence of high-rise multifamily housing in the central areas of Latin American cities has been a trend since the 1980s, driven by the global economic liberalization. In Metropolitan Lima, this boom is evident in the construction of such housing in central districts like Jesús María, Lince, Breña, San Isidro, Miraflores, and others. However, over the past 15 years, this trend has extended to the city’s periphery. Comas is one of the districts where high-rise apartments have appeared, particularly due to projects in the El Retablo area on the former Aeroclub de Collique site. This suggests changes in both urban development in the district and in the expectations and experiences of citizens regarding this new type of housing. This study will focus on the latter, specifically investigating the residential trajectories of current residents of the El Retablo condominiums in Comas and how their expectations and desires influenced their decision to move to this new type of housing. The methodology is qualitative: interviews were conducted with residents from various condominiums in the area for subsequent analysis. The main reasons for moving to these condominiums were found to be the low cost of the apartments and the desire to own something. These reasons were influenced by their previous residential trajectories

    Vivienda e informalidad urbana: el caso de Airbnb y sus posibles impactos en un distrito de Lima
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-11-22)
    Recent studies have considered urban informality as a multidimensional problem, and have discussed whether it is really a deviation or externality of formality. The objective of this essay is to prove that Airbnb’s operation in Lima occurs in a rental market where private and state actors co-produce informality to satisfy their interests. First, the argument is presented that Airbnb exploits local conditions of informality in contexts of deregulation, as well as state ambiguity in order to facilitate accumulation processes. From this, secondly, it is argued that the presence of Airbnb has serious effects on the production of the city: urban investment, gentrification, construction and residentiality. To do this, the possible impact of Airbnb in the Barranco district is analyzed. It is concluded that: i) informality is a modus operandi of urban planning by the State and private actors, and that it is not separated from the formal system, and ii) that Airbnb activity has bidirectional effects on socio-spatial aspects. of the general rental market such as investment in urban housing, gentrification and residentiality. Attempting a more detailed understanding of the various dimensions of urban informality in Peru is an urgent exercise, especially if we consider that the phenomenon of informality is a recurring and primary concern in discussions about public and economic policies, as well as in deliberation policy.

    Segregated Trajectories, Isolated Lives: Venezuelan Migrants in Metropolitan Lima
    (Universidad Nacional de Colombia::will be referenced::ROR-ID, 2023-01-01)
    We ask about the logic behind the residential trajectories of migrant population and their effect in the composition of their social bonds. We introduce the case of Lima, the city with the largest number of Venezuelan migrants in the continent, where we collected a total of 37 interviews (27 to Venezuelans, 10 to Peruvians for the aim of comparison). We found that the residential trajectories of migrants are strongly linked to the locations of their jobs. However, since they change jobs often, they also change their places of residence. These residential changes and their intense job schedules, make their social bonds to be temporary, having to re-make them with each residential change. As a consequence, immigrant population's segregation is not only spatial, but supposes encapsulated lives, with few permanent ties and several disposable ties along their trajectories.
