inner cities  

Définition(s)

  • Inner city refers to the decaying central area of a major city, urban metropolis, or conurbation, comprising the most deprived neighborhoods around the central business district. It is different from the rest of the city in a number of its characteristics: it is an area affected by long-term urban infrastructure decay, poor housing conditions, and lack of basic modern social amenities; it is inhabited by a low-income population, usually ethnic minorities; and it has high unemployment rates, low school standards, and high crime rates.
