In this paper we present the first results of a qualitative-quantitative study in which the existing heterogeneities in youth experiences of inequality are addressed. The research analyzes specific neighborhood scenarios in the suburbs of the City of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and links them with the biographical trajectories of adolescents and young people who inhabit them. This work advances, first, in the conceptualization of the notion of neighborhood scenario, since it allows us to capture the structural positions and differences of opportunity constrained to a given area. Then, two neighborhood scenarios are empirically reconstructed, which account for typical social scenarios that can be found in the suburbs of the City of Buenos Aires and other urban conglomerates in the country. Through this approach we seek to specify territorial disparities and socio-spatial inequalities in two selected neighborhoods, while analyzing in what ways the specificities of a territory influence the daily life and health of those who live in it.
