Segregação socioespacial em Maceió: condomínios e loteamentos fechados: uma atualização

Abstract

This study aimed to review and update research in the field of urban studies, in order to understand the process of socio-spatial segregation of the high-income population in Maceió from the Geography Course of the Institute of Geography, Development and Environment of UFAL. The spatial cutout for updating these developments were Residential Zones 5 and 6 of the Master Plan of Maceió. The methodology consisted of two stages: The first stage was the bibliographical research of the Final Course Works, of the Institutional Program of Scientific Initiation (PIBIC) and Master's Dissertation (PPGG). The second stage was the updating of these developments with emphasis on neighborhoods located in the area of urban expansion on the coast of Maceió. In this stage, research was carried out at the Municipal Secretariat of Environment and Urbanism, and photographic records were taken aiming at updating these developments. The results indicated the increase in demand and expansion of this housing standard. Thus, the performance of the real estate sector, developers and construction companies are decisive in the sale through luxury real estate marketing. This led to the reinforcement of segregation processes in the city of Maceió.
