Abstract

This article analyses the housing characteristics of Chinese migration in Spain. Its residential behaviour is characterised by a high rate of internal mobility mainly associated with work and economic activities. Other more specific variables will be introduced, such as transnational housing links. The phases of the residential trajectory that include housing in emergency and transitional housing to achieve residential stability will be the subject of analysis for the case of Chinese migration. Finally, several residential trajectories of Chinese migrants in Spain are presented showing the complexity of the relationship between housing and mobility with Chinese peculiarities.
