[A new measure for degree of urbanization: the address density of the surrounding area].

A new method of measuring the degree of urbanization of a given area, developed by the Dutch Central Bureau of Statistics, is introduced. "The measure classifies areas according to what is called address density of the surroundings: the average address density within a radius of 1 km of an address in the area." The advantages are discussed, and the measure is used to classify the 647 municipalities in the Netherlands into five groups according to urbanization level. (SUMMARY IN ENG)

[Relocating the rich, expelling the poor: residential segregation and the dynamics of the property market in the city of Rio de Janeiro].

"The paper explores the mediating role of [the] property market in generating residential segregation [in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil].... It is shown that the market for apartments is still basically high-income oriented (in contrast with the situation in cities of the developed countries) and that the rapid (faster than family mobility) spatial deconcentration of this market...has played an important role in expelling...the poor, albeit through indirect means, from the areas subjected more intensively to new property developments."
