Quality of Life Differentiating Factors: Migratory Dynamics, Centrality/Accessibility, Urban Categories and Geographical Gross Product

Abstract

All the maps that we show in the previous chapter, referring to the degree of well-being or quality of life of the Argentine population in 2010, implicitly have explanatory factors. Therefore, in this chapter, we will consider the relationship between the well-being of the population and a series of factors that, in the form of maps, can contribute to the explanation of the found differences. In this sense, they constitute clues that explain the inequalities in the living conditions of the Argentine population. These are migratory dynamics, centrality/accessibility, urban categories, and generation of wealth. In general terms, the results indicate that there is a correlation between medium-size cities and positive factors.
