The objective of this paper is to analyze the gaps in both income and multidimensional poverty between the formal and informal neighborhoods of the City of Buenos Aires. We measure multidimensional poverty based on the method proposed by Alkire and Foster (2011) and income poverty based on the official poverty lines and measurement methodology, with the purpose of presenting a more accurate description of the incidence and intensity of poverty in these two distinct areas of the city. The analysis is based on the city government’s 2016 Annual Household Survey, which is unique in that it collects data on a statistically representative sample of households living in the jurisdiction’s informal settlements. Buenos Aires es la ciudad más próspera de nuestro país. Sin embargo, presenta altos niveles de desigualdad, que se expresan particularmente en la segregación territorial de la pobreza en asentamientos informales, la mayoría de los cuales se ubican en la zona sur de la ciudad. El objetivo de este documento es analizar las brechas en la pobreza, definida tanto de manera multidimensional como por ingresos, entre los habitantes de los barrios formales e informales de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires. Se mide la pobreza multidimensional mediante el método de Alkire-Foster (2011) y la pobreza por ingresos empleando la metodología oficial (Dirección General de Estadísticas y Censos, DGEyCCABA). Este análisis complementario permite presentar una descripción más precisa de la incidencia e intensidad de la pobreza en estas dos zonas de la ciudad. El análisis se basa en los datos de la Encuesta Annual de Hogares, 2016 (DGEyC).
