Sumario:The paper proposes to revisit Horacio Torres' thesis on the suburbanization of the elites in the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area (AMBA) during the last decade of the 20th century, a process that is assumed to be closely linked to the proliferation of gated communities in the periphery and which author considered "late" in relation to what happened in other large cities of the continent. From the processing of microdata bases of Argentine historical censuses, we found that the suburbanization of the elites in the AMBA in the nineties, although it existed, was not as late or novel as has been believed up to now. Recent internal migration data suggest that there was a first early suburbanization during the last civil-military dictatorship at the end of the 1970s. This first migration from the center to the periphery had distinctive characteristics compared to the later suburbanization of the nineties.
