Abstract

ARES, Sofía Estela. A look on the south of Mar del Plata city; the smaller localities from a demo-geographic perspective (1991-2001). Pap. poblac [online]. 2008, vol.14, n.58, pp.155-182. ISSN 2448-7147.

In relation to the population increase of the localities found to the south of Mar del Plata (General Pueyrredon District) the main problem is to establish the contribution of the vegetative and migratory balances. Census data allow an indirect approach to the vegetative behavior but in relation to migrations it is not possible to calculate mobility balances. The results were obtained trough the quantitative analysis of census data that showed an aging process in the mentioned localities and the probable prominence of the migratory component in the population increase.

Keywords : populate; small localities; demographic structure; migrations.
