Özet:

The aging of population arises as a current demographic phenomenon, at present consolidated in both European and Latin American cities. However, aging rates are unevenly distributed across cities, in a particular dialogue with areas of urban vulnerability. The aim of the article is to show the recent evolution of the urban demographic aging process and its unequal socio-spatial distribution in the cities of Seville (Spain) and La Plata (Argentina), analyzing its relationship with scenarios of social vulnerability and housing in a comparative quantitative perspective, as it could result in processes of risk. The methodology used is quantitative, focused on analysis of official statistical sources (censuses, land registers, cadastre). The results obtained show the importance of considering demographic aging as an end stage of the neighborhood life cycle, rather than a condition for urban vulnerability.
