This line of research addresses the urban insertion of immigrants in the more general framework of the transformations driven by neoliberal urbanism, gentrification and precariousness, and from a multidimensional and holistic perspective, highlighting the conjunction between the socio-urban, socio-economic and cultural spheres, sociability and neighbourhood relations. In this line, the evolution of the residential insertion of immigrants is addressed, from central working-class neighbourhoods to peripheral working-class neighbourhoods, which today have the highest proportion of neighbourhoods of other origins. The problems of these neighbourhoods are studied, which cannot be reduced to the presence of immigration in them, as well as their characteristics. It also analyses access to territorialised public services, schools, health centres and social services, as well as the dynamics generated at neighbourhood level. Another significant area of urban integration is the changes that have taken place in our public spaces, some more functional, mobility nodes, others more for leisure and relaxation, parks and gardens. The process of urban integration of immigrants, whether it is more inclusive or more exclusive, is the result of the dynamics in these various interrelated areas.
