| Summary: | Living in Downtown Mexico City : a subjective attraction. In
downtown Mexico City the “Centro-Histórico” (Historic Centre) district is composed by two neighbourhoods: “Poniente” (West) and “Oriente” (East). “Poniente” always has been a touristic neighbourhood meantime “Oriente” has been one of the most deprived neighbourhoods in the country in terms of housing / services provision. A survey and further SPSS statistical correlation analysis in the central attraction issue context evaluates the “Oriente” neighbourhood residents’ opinions to measure the needs and impedances (difficulties) for development of different housing / services constitutive elements that conform them to disclose their attraction level according to the “freewill to stay in place” alterantice represented by housing seniority. Results indicate a significant will to stay in the “Oriente” neighbourhood in spite of a very important decay in local housing /
services. The article concludes that a strong sense of identity and
neighbourhood belonging is very much present in the residents mind and latin culture such as Mexico’s, prompting the outcome here shown. This fact motivates to think that “Oriente” neighbourhood is still attractive enough to residents. |
