Abstract
During the last twenty years the city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife has experienced a residential development characterized by the remarkable role of private sector. Spatial distribution of housing shows a clear divide between the private-developed urban core and first-tier periphery, and the public housing peripheral fringes. This residential differentiation propitiates new segregation processes reinforced by the public sector developments lacking any concern about social equity.
