Urban segregation and unemployment: A case study of the urban area of Marseille – Aix-en-Provence (France)

Our results support the hypothesis that living in or near a deprived neighborhood decreases the probability of employment.

In a first step, we highlight the realness of residential segregation in Marseille by a topology of neighborhoods by degree of deprivation with a principal com…
