Spatial Patterns of the Foreign Population in Prague and the Central Bohemian Region: The State 10 Years After the Financial Crisis

Original language description

The chapter deals with the spatial patterns of the distribution of foreigners in Prague and Central Bohemia, focusing not only on the current situation, but also on their development illustrated by several time slices. The main source of data is the database of the Foreigners Police of the Czech Republic (data for the years 2008-2017) and as a spatial framework we apply the original zonation of Prague/typology of the municipalities of the Central Bohemia Region. Foreigners are divided by citizenship into six groups (four individual and two aggregated), for which spatial patterns are subsequently evaluated using cartographic visualizations and characteristic locations of residence are identified. Additionally, the level of segregation was calculated for each group using a dissimilarity index. The results show differences in the residential preferences and options of each group, as well as distinct locations of increased concentration. Despite the obvious signs of a suburbanization trend developing among foreigners, it can be concluded that their population in the study area remains predominantly urban.
