Searching for Fresh Air, Tranquillity and Rural Culture in the Mountains: A New Lifestyle for Chileans?
Abstract
The paper analyses the legal framework as well as the distribution and spatial structure of amenity migration in Chilean mountain regions (Cordillera de la Costa, Cordillera de los Andes) and the trend within recent decades. It presents two case studies in the two main mountain ranges. Based on qualitative data (expert interviews) it also deals with neighbourhood relationships and conflicts between migrants and the local population. The paper ends in an assessment of the economic and social consequences of the new residential parks which are mainly made up of large lots of more than 5,000 m2, called parcelas de agrado (pleasure lots).
