Residential segregation is both a cause and consequence of socioeconomic
inequalities. Since the 1990s, segregation patterns in Latin American cities
have changed significantly. This is related to major urban transformations caused
by privatization policies related to urban development, commercialization, and real
estate activity. The main purpose of this chapter is to study residential socioeconomic
segregation in the city of Bogotá, Colombia in 2005, using educational attainment
as an indicator of socioeconomic status while considering the drivers of segregation
during the 1990s. We also introduce a brief analysis of the relationship between
residential segregation and inequality based on a model that allows replicating the
income distribution of the population using census variables. This chapter shows that
residential segregation in Bogotá is related to per capita income inequality, however,
segregation may be caused by the dynamics of land and housing markets rather than
inequality.
