SERENO, Claudia. The rururban of the city of Bahía Blanca: ¿Are residents vulnerable to change?. Estudios Socioterritoriales [online]. 2020, vol.28, pp.1-52.  Epub 16-Dez-2020. ISSN 1853-4392.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.37838/unicen/est.28-063.

The city of Bahía Blanca has experienced, in recent years, an expansion of the urban land towards the periphery, suffering alterations, in particular, of its edges. In this sense, the oldest residents of the urban bahiense, dedicated to rural tasks, are vulnerable -due to the growth of uses incompatible, in general, with their routines- and through their daily practices and ties, they show roots and tendency to remain or uproot and, therefore, willingness to abandon their properties. The work identifies the impacts of urbanization in the area and the perception of its residents regarding this situation, as well as establishing the vulnerability, especially, of the oldest inhabitants whose decisions and strategies will influence the tendency to change the edge. The methodology combines qualitative-quantitative techniques and is based, in the field work, on the application of semi-structured interviews to the inhabitants and the incorporation of the data in a GIS to prepare the vulnerability synthesis cartography in the area.
