- Abstract
In this paper, we characterize and assess the geographical accessibility of free public housing projects - VIS and savers public housing - VIPA to urban public health and education facilities in five cities: Barranquilla, Soledad, Malambo, Valledupar and Soacha. Four indicators of accessibility are used: the average distance, the minimum distance and the amount and percentage of facilities within a two- and four- kilometer radio. As a result, it is found that the geographical accessibility is low relative to some international standards, especially in the case of health. In addition, free housing projects registered a lower availability than those for savers in most of the cases.
