Abstract
The categorisation of natural waterways creates a regional hydrological vocabulary,
based on physical processes and cultural history. The context of Chile provides insights
into the cultural role in perceiving and describing such important landscape elements.
The results indicate that waterway classification is strongly influenced by regional
cultural perspectives, regional climates and specific historical processes.

- The Geographical Journal
- 15 July 2018
Abstract
Focussing on the Kingfisher Estate, we provide the first investigation of the formation
of a studentified neighbourhood, using data from administrative data sets to track
tenurial transformations from owner‐occupation to private rental shared housing. Our
analyses are deepened from a survey of student preferences for accommodation, and
interviews with local community representatives, to reveal a production–consumption
interface for high‐quality student housing in Kingfisher. We argue that this is illustrative
of a new frontier of studentification, which emphasises the volatility of student
housing markets. Crucially, these dynamics are having a significant influence on broader
changing urban geographies, such as the de‐studentification of other neighbourhoods,
and the overall supply of (affordable) housing.
