RESIDENTIAL MOBILITY IN ISTANBUL- B. A. KIPNIS REVISITED
Abstract
This study aims to clarify the nature and selectiveness of residential moves and their impacts on the urban space, at the level of district in Istanbul within two distinct periods: 1985-1990 and 1995-2000. This study is an attempt to understand residential mobility which is one of the poorly studied dynamics of Turkish urbanization. Data used in this study is drawn from the 1990 and 200 Population Censuses. To analyse residential mobility, the paper revisited B.A. Kipnis’ ‘flow priority graph’ and introduces the ‘Socio-economic Development Index’ which is the original contribution of this study. The major findings are that from 1990 to 2000, high-status groups’ interaction with the urban geography of Istanbul significantly increased, opposite to low-status groups.
