Abstract

We analyzed the public policies of urban housing production in Córdoba (Argentina) between 2005 and 2015. As a result, we verified the hypothesis that they structure emergent processes of access to the urban habitat of the city: counterurbanization, increase of tenants, and shrinking population in pericentral and intermediate urban areas. We analyzed the public policies of direct and indirect (financing) urban housing production, by means of systematizing information obtained from key agents, census data, indexed publications, and information produced by public and private institutions. We reconstructed the scope of these policies to solve the housing deficit, its availability to different socioeconomic groups, and the patterns of territorialization that emerge from them. The results are presented as a contribution in the current discussion on the production of urban habitat in metropolitan areas of Argentina and Latin America.
