Abstract
Segregation and integration of different population categories are manifest in several domains of life, such as the labour market, the housing market, and in education. These processes have their reflection in geographical space, in which they materialise and visualise levels of inequality and difference. Apart from space, also scale is an essential element in the study of segregation and integration. With new micro-level spatial 'point data' for individuals becoming available, and with new methods being developed, adequate and detailed analysis of spatial segregation and integration, almost free of scale, has become within reach. In this contribution we will show the potential of analysing such new data while applying new geographical methods to investigate the local co-location of various population categories and their micro-level dynamics in the city of Amsterdam between 1994 and 2018. The focus is on the heterogeneity of residential local co-location of population categories according to their country of origin.
