description | This paper aims to characterize urban resources in the context of Mexico City. Through six portraits of six women which migrated to Naucalpan, an industrial suburb of Mexico city, we expect to show how migrant families face the challenge of settling in the metropolis and of building sustainable access to the main resources. The interviews reveal two ways of considering the urban environment, as a constraint and as a potential resource, in order to develop a midterm and long-term family project. More specifically, these women had to organize child care, crucial for their access to employment. The first strategy, classic in the literature, is the anchorage, where solidarity can be reconstituted to deal with situations of vulnerability, the second relies more on the couple centrality-mobility through an intelligence of the urban configuration that make resources available. |
