Abstract

[eng] This article studies the effect of residential segregation and spatial mismatch (physical distance from the workplace) on unemployment. We begin with a brief summary of the economic literature on these issues. We then offer descriptive statistics to characterize the scope of residential segregation and spatial mismatch in the Paris region (Île-de-France) using 1999 census data and inter-city travel-time matrices for 2000. We conclude by estimating the effect of the local context (segregation and spatial mismatch ) on unemployment / employment transitions in the Paris region, using 1990-2002 Labor-Force Survey data. Our results show that unemployed persons in segregated districts have greater difficulty in finding new jobs. [fre] Cet article étudie l’effet de la ségrégation résidentielle et de la déconnexion physique aux lieux d’emploi sur le chômage. Nous présentons tout d’abord une brève synthèse de la littérature économique portant sur ces questions. Nous proposons ensuite des statistiques descriptives caractérisant l’ampleur de la ségrégation résidentielle et de la déconnexion physique aux emplois en Île-de-France en utilisant les données du recensement de 1999 et des matrices de temps de déplacement intercommunal de 2000. Nous estimons finalement l’effet du contexte local (ségrégation et déconnexion aux emplois) sur les transitions chômage / emploi en Île-de-France en utilisant les données de l’Enquête Emploi de 1990 à 2002. Nos résultats montrent que les chômeurs des quartiers ségrégués ont plus de mal à retrouver un emploi.
