In this paper, poverty is assumed as a spatial reality, a social production that requires alternative measuring instruments. Thus, the document ventures into the theoretical discussion of poverty as a spatial phenomenon and incorporates the tools for exploratory spatial data analysis to explain the multidimensional aspects of poverty in the 125 municipalities in the Department of Antioquia (Colombia). Poverty is measured as the percentage of population with unsatisfied basic needs. As a result, a spatial dependence of the poverty phenomenon of municipalities with their neighbors is observed, concentrating high percentages of poor population in border areas and low percentages in the heart of the department. |
